Grow your own Garden

We've been bit by the "Grow your own" bug. Bogi made a lovely raised bed for Senga to grow some veggies in. David and Mark came with soil which was mixed with some of Sandy's mushroom compost. Senga has now sown carrots, peas, lettuce, spring onion and a little herb garden. A great team effort.




Lois and Helena have joined in too. They each have their own square metre garden where they have sown sunflowers, cornflowers, calendula and nasturtiums.

The young shoots are well through now and in need of thinning.

And we must not forget Babba's potato patch down the side of the house. The shows came through this week and are taking off like mad so Bogi's been out earthing up. I think he's really glad they're just outside the sitting room window as he can sit and look at them rain or shine. No tatties have been loved more :)
