RE: Time to reopen the Little Shop at the end of the garden! - Small chilli - 30-09-2025
My little shop is definitely slowing down for the winter now. There’s a reasonable supply of jalapenos and a few other chillies available or coming soon. A couple of aubergines and the last handful of tomatoes. One last handful of dried beans in the pick your own aisle. Some old woody beetroot. Still some nice squash and carrots available but that’s about it. Shop keeper is planning some more improvements and expansion over the winter. Including hopefully a new product , honey.

My shop has definitely gone downhill this year. The shop keeper blamed climate conditions and pest invasions for lack of produce. There doesn't seem to have been a glut of any particular product. The shelves have some chard, apples and carrots but not a lot else.

My shopkeeper told me that Your shopkeeper had cornered the market for cucumbers and courgettes and that the suppliers had none left for his shop.

Tomatoes were in regular supply but the varieties were much reduced. I've told him he's got to do better next year.

My little shop still has stocks of parsnips, kale, chard, cabbage, carrots, lettuce but only one though cucumber. Raspberries have almost finished just a few each day now for special customers
