The gluts have left the building (shed)

This is where I used to write about the gluts I get from my veg patch and the ensuing gluttony in the kitchen.

Now I write a weekly mostly-veggie recipe over on Substack, plus share tales from the veg patch and exclusive videos. You can subscribe for free by clicking on the link below and every recipe will be sent straight to your inbox. If you’d like more content (such as those videos I mentioned, interviews and printer-friendly PDFs of every recipe to collect) do consider becoming a paid subscriber. More on that here.

In the meantime, here’s an archive of my old Gluts and Gluttony blog:
