Monster Parsnips

December, and still mild, although there was a frost this morning. Started digging over the south end of the plot in readiness for next years spuds. Up came the last two kohl rabi (not sure they’ll be fir for consumption) and a few carrots which will hopefully keep til christmas.
The parsnips at home are poor this year, rather stunted. But the ones here are enormous! Difficult to dig up because they go so deep, this one was about 2 feet long. Dug another couple of leeks, but these are a rather dissapointing this year.
