I made it along to the allotment today, for the first time in a few weeks. Time and weather has been against me. It’s just a little too early to plant anything, so today we did some more weeding to try and keep on top of the couch grass and surveyed our plot, looking forward to good things to come. Meanwhile the overwintering onions are looking mighty fine and the daffodils are in full bloom
Some brave nasturtiums have appeared beside the compost bins, ready to race all over them in the summer:
Back at the garden, my first salads have germinated in the seed palace
and the pigeons have eaten all my broccoli. Inside, I have my first germinated tomatoes and potatoes are chitting nicely in an absent musician’s bedroom.
The gardening season is truly underway
Pigeon pie?
I’ve had a fair crop already so maybe it’s ok that they get some of it!
And the fun begins!
Always fun!
It’s that time of the year isn’t it, we cannot wait to get going again with our growing 🙂
Indeed – but it’s starting slowly
