New Potatoes
Our first new potatoes of the year |
Alongside our potatoes, Onions, Garden and Sugar Snap Peas, Runner, French dwarf and Broad Beans, we have now planted out Cabbage, Cauliflower, Sprouts, Carrots, Turnip, Beetroot, Butternut Squash and Courgettes. When the potatoes are lifted we will follow up with Leeks and Swede.

Pressing on
The Runner beans are now planted as are two rows of peas and one row of sugar snap peas. Replacement Broad beans and dwarf French beans are hardening off prior to planting.

Finally, a late start
This picture is one of the reasons for the late start as the new "Engine Room" of the Allotment has been constructed in the back garden. Tomatoes, cucumber, melons are all under way and we have seeded more Broad beans as well as Runner and dwarf French beans.

A new season, a new start
A bit of sunshine and down to the Allotment to cut the grass and start preparation for the growing season.
