Leeks - young plants to fully grown and seeding to the pan!

These leeks were given to the garden group by a very good friend of one the members in August 2012, and planted the same month. They were left to grow over winter, and harvested today to be used for the Rathbone 'Come Dine With Us' project which some of the Gardening Project members also attend...

Here's the process in photo form :)
