What to harvest february Basil Carrot Mustard greens (If you’ve planted a few bushes and now wondering what to do with all the the produce, you’re not alone. Roasted, souped, pied, curried or stuffed. Anything a zucchini can do....) Squash Beans (Our hearts become fuller with ripe tomatoes on the bushes and this is the time of year when we are most loving. Sweet and sugary when flavoured on the vine, plan a harvest for homemade Sugo and make a Sunday of it.) Lettuce Strawberry Tomato Sweet corn Nasturtium (Most commonly picked for its flowers, try taking the youngest, most tender leaves for a soup or garnish, delicious.)
