Pulp Fiction – the October round up

16/10/2021 By HC

You may have noticed that we are slightly infatuated with Autumn around here, not to pick favourites… but this season seems to hold a special interest for us. We love all that it offers and ushers in. It’s the season that epitomises hygge. With colours and flowers and fires and cooking, light changes, logs, scarves, harvesting and foraging what’s not to like?

October can be a really great month for fresh produce too with an array of cut flowers still flourishing and all the hard efforts of Spring and Summer paying off to yield vegetables and fruits that will safely see you through to Christmas. Yes we said the C word, but more on that soon. For now here is a celebration journal entry full of October pickings from garden plots and pantries and proof how easy it is to grow your own stylish & culinary gourds and pumpkins with companion flowers for the season.
