Late Winter tidy up

Today I went to the plot for the first time in a few weeks.  After a week looking after my 3 children I needed a break!  It was a sunny day but windy - almost got blown away walking down there...

When I got down I spent an hour or so digging, trying to get the plot ready for planting.  I also checked on my garlic, added another row which I found in the shed and planted my first Broad Bean seeds out.  The picture to the left shows the garlic growing well.

I also decided that it was time to tidy the shed up - it is now looking better and hopefully the big spiders have found other homes!  The challenge is now to keep it tidy.


I didn't go home empty handed though - I picked the last of the sprouts (ok, the only sprouts that grew properly this year) and my leeks to make some soup for work.

All in all a nice morning and I am feeling quite happy about the next year.  I just need to spend a little more time down there.
