Mid-May Plot Tour

Here’s a quick whizz around the plot on a hot day in May. The peaches are coming on a treat, the spuds bounced back from the frost check, beans are ready for the risotto and the fox is getting cheeky.

Month in Pictures – April Blitz

Month in Pictures - April Blitz

Most of this months pictures were the result of one weekend’s endeavours. A two pronged assault during a sunny break in the middle of the month proved to be an excellent opportunity for pulling the plot together. Weeds were pulled, beans were planted and my resident constructionist re-built last years rather poorly looking greenhouse. The [...]

Months in Pictures - Jan to Mar 2009

Here’s an almost wordless month in pictures update. I’m so far behind that I’m cramming 3 months into one mosaic and as I didn’t seem to make it to the plot much in those first 3 months, there isn’t a lot to say.

Month in Pictures - August 08

  Despite the grotty wet weather, August still flourished and I spent almost all of my gardening time harvesting crops. Can’t complain about that but it does mean I failed to sow any overwintering crops, hopefully September sown spring cabbages will still be productive. Blight inevitably struck towards the middle of the month so I [...]
