It’s an understatement to say that this year, with its rare rainfall, has been a daily challenge to keep the plants germinating under glass in the spring alive. No ice saints, but countless slugs!
These fearsome predators feasted on our vegetables. It’s a race against time between the season’s rare rays of sunshine and the rainy mornings, calling for these voracious slugs to gather.
It’s been a tough year, but it’s not over yet. The vegetables are finally appearing and we’re enjoying these mini harvests, which are far too late. A few tomatoes, survivors of the devastating blight in October, give our plates a touch of summer.
