🍂🌿 Sometimes the best gym has no walls, no machines and no membership fees.
Today, I decided to swap my indoor workout for a few hours at my allotment.
And nature rewarded me with an incredible late-October harvest!
Purple potatoes, red potatoes, beautiful fresh chard, ripe tomatoes and baskets of green tomatoes waiting to be rescued before the colder weather arrives. 🍅
Gardening gives us opportunities to squat, stretch, carry, balance and move in ways that everyday modern life often doesn't encourage.
But there's something else.
Being surrounded by greenery, feeling the fresh air, working with the seasons and watching something you've nurtured grow can be deeply restorative.
And now comes the next adventure!
What do I do with all those green tomatoes?
I've put together a carousel sharing 6 ways to preserve and enjoy green tomatoes, from ripening them indoors to preparing delicious winter meals.
Creating a healthier life doesn't always require doing more. Sometimes it means reconnecting with the simple things we've forgotten.
💚 From longevity to healthspan.
I'd love to know: Do you have an allotment, a vegetable garden or even a few pots on your balcony?
And do you have a favourite green tomato recipe?
