The first handful of potatoes - Premiere, living up to their name.The potatoes are doing their best in spite of a lack of rain. Enough for a meal for us - another week and there will some to sell. So far Vales Emerald and Premier are the clear winners, with Premier a good even size. Best for flavour though were the Red Duke of York babies, snatched from the plants and hardly big enough for a mouthful.
Bank Holiday butterflies - we walked through Painted Lady butterflies in the garden and farm. Usually we see a few, and later in the summer. Must ask the Isle of Wight Natural History and Archaeological Society for comments on this! http://www.iwnhas.org/
