Digging out the compost

Tuesday was a free day and I knew that my compost bins were in desperate need of emptying before I got going this season.

Rhubarb

Rasberries 



Black salsify and swede 

Parsnips 

Leeks

Purple sprouting broccoli

Spinach

tiny broccoli florets!


Not a bad haul brought home for mid January!
