Not all of our vegetables get harvested in the autumn. Some, like parsnips, are better left in the ground to overwinter, sleeping away under a blanket of snow, and getting sweeter.
The ground is finally dry enough, and warm enough, and that in itself is enough to get Carol out into her garden. She found the green tops of the parnsips just starting to show, and, following down to the logical conclusion, was rewarded with the first fresh veggie of the year!
