September garden - celery

Celery patch - with evidence of caterpillars!
September 2010
I'm amazed at how well our celery is going - two patches like this. When we came back after a few weeks away, the caterpillars had taken over. I don't mind a bit of munching but they brought all their relatives and set up a squat in our celery patch!
Now that they've been relocated (some went to people with chooks - apparently they love them!), the celery is thriving again.
I'm just loving going out and plucking some celery stalks to add to meals. I've added some recipes using celery onto the 365 seasonal garden recipes blogsite. The lentil and celery soup is especially delicious!
