Allotment harvest


You can see just a small selection of our pickings from the allotment this morning. These are the first peas and they look lovely. The radishes seem a bit too big probably but not to worry and the strawberries continue to taste lovely with the raspberries starting to come too. There was plenty of spinach and chard as well, so all coming along nicely.

The first early potatoes will be ready soon and the leeks, courgette, cabbage, parsnips and french beans, runner beans and beetroot are also making good progress.

From the allotment we went to Verwood to cut the lawns and I also got the woodstain out for the old bench in the front garden. I did our gates yesterday, along with the swing seat, and they both look all the better for a bit of attention.

Almost like spring

It was still chilly this morning but Juno and I were in the woods by 7 and enjoying the light at last, the days stretching at either end not...
