Blooming April


All's happening in the garden now the growing season's kicked off and we've finally had some rain...buds are unfolding, seedlings are shooting up in the glasshouse, the new soft fruit bushes are in full leaf and we've a NEW 'no dig' bed soon to be filled with salad crops (more photos coming soon)


In the rather crowded glasshouse...French beans ready for transplanting and celeriac seedlings soon to be potted on...















...And blossom's out on our pear trees...worth a sniff if you're visiting anytime soon!

A bird's eye view

Thanks to some handy scaffolding which was in place last week, I scrambled up and took some photos of the garden as the doves see it...





...Shame it's not a permenant feature - I'd happily spend my lunch breaks up there!
