'Moulin Rouge'

'Summer Glut' is that moment when suddenly you are up to your ears in vegetables: zucchini, beans, tomatoes; often all at the same time, which means simply having to roll up your sleeves once the 'Summer Glut' hits. Bottling, freezing, pickling and drying: laying down excess produce in anticipation of the 'Hungry Gap' next Spring.
