One month after 1st planting......

There is life on my plot- in addition to the worms & weeds!






One month on and the broad beans, garlic and shallots are all doing well.
The plastic cover to my cloche blew away in high winds and although my plot neighbour and I both searched, it has vanished without a trace!



With a little help from Erica from Freecycle, I now have a stack of old floorboards to finish off the raised beds. Four beds done- only eight more to go!!

Hurray, isn't is great to see things growing at this grotty time of year, I visited my lotties today and was thrilled with my garlics progress, the beans have been 2 possibly 3 weeks but there is no sign of life yet. I need Feb/Mar to hurry along to the serious planting can begin !!

Still no sign of my garlic, well apart from the ones the birds pulled up.

Nice machinery in the previous entry ;>)
