Courgettes

We have planted some things this year, but not too many as we wanted to focus on keeping on top of what we have rather than planting loads of stuff and then the weeds taking over. It is quite hard to keep it going along with all the other stuff. Mostly the garden is my job except sometimes Doug has to mow it when it gets just toooo out of control.
The courgettes have just started coming through as baby courgettes. In a month or so they will probably get on top of us and we will start to feel burdened by the number we are failing to eat that are turning into marrows. Maybe it won't happen this year as I did have the sense to only keep two plants, also they are self seeded and as I think last years were F1 hybrids there is a good chance they won't be as prolific as normal.

There are some french beans that will come through soon and some tomatoes and we have been having quite a few raspberries.
We planted some new fruit bushes this year and so far I have been doing well at keeping them weed free-ish.
