Today Ian cleared the Greenhouse of old Pots, and swept it out, prior to it being disinfected before being used again. I ordered Packs of 'Alicante' and 'Shirley', Tomatoes, Broad Bean, 'The Sutton', 'Meteor' Pea, 'Early Nantes' Carrot, and several others, so I can write in my shiny new Gardening Journal tonight for the first time this Year.
I second that Danuta, they have a beautiful flavor, and looking through my Seed Box, found a free Packet of Seed, so guess what, am growing at least one Plant. There will be enough Seed to send you some, save a bit of Money, Danuta, in fact will have free packs of Seed, mostly Flowers, will list them, then anyone who wants them is welcome, or could share.
Our neighbour's chickens keep getting in our garden (it's all fenced, but they fly up on the waist-high fence and then jump down). I love seeing them in the garden, it's like having our own but without any of the bother! But of course, when we start growing stuff this year, it will be a problem then, as we don't want them eating all our produce! Unfortunately, the young neighbours seem to have lost interest in the chickens and certainly don't seem at all bothered about keeping them penned in, despite us having a quiet word with them about it.
learning to love veg…..except celery :-O
