It's a start - James and Connie discuss the Progress
Well eventually all the talk about making a polytunnel has bourne fruit and last week an area in the lee of the hedge was cleared and some preparation done. I have been busy teaching Pony Club camp but this afternoon I could here hammering and lo and behold there was a frame being put in place to raise the area and some materials had been bought. Johnny and James were busy at work so it is a case of watch the space and see what happens.
Planted potatoes into bags and these are now in the kitchen garden by the hedge, onions beginning to peep up think I can just see carrots appearing and the milan top turnips have germinated, raspberry plants and gooseberries look as though they are settling into their new home well. Won't have any time probably till Saturday afternoon for the garden but work is a necessary evil unfortunately.Will put up some photos of the flowers in April later with any luck.
