Having spent the afternoon with a Veg box supplier, it started me thinking about how I would fill my own veg box from the garden. 
According to a list I found somewhere, in November and December, I should be able to harvest:-
Brussels sprouts
Cabbage (summer)
Carrots
Cauli (winter)
Chard
Kale
Lettuce
Parsnip
Radish
Spinach
Swede
Turnip

I'd have to buy in sprouts, cabbage, cauli, parsnip, swede and turnip - but I could add as substitutes, leeks, Chinese leaves, landcress, tomatoes and mangetout.

What would be in your Veg box?
