And you can eat it ........................


After a lot of hard work up until now things are definitely becoming easier - more maintenance than heavy work. And - even better, of course - crops are starting to mature. So far we've been eating the Swift first early potatoes, with a photo to prove it! And once those are finished we'll be moving on to the Charlottes.

The courgettes are starting to mature, as are the broad beans, so very shortly we'll really be able to enjoy the fruits of our labour!

The Great Garden Transformation






As soon as the garden path was removed just over a week ago Linda has been working hard on the redesign and re-stocking of the garden. The shifting of 2 tons of topsoil through to the rear garden proved to be remarkably quick ( a little on Friday evening and the rest on Saturday, finishing around 4pm) and Linda can really concentrate on the finishing touches now.

These photos give an idea of how things are changing.
