It’s wonderous out there in the garden. Household tasks managed and now it is time to get out and about. As much as we can given a stage of lockdown is over? Let’s not go mad! In the front garden I had another meeting with Gilly about Veg Up Front and I need to get some signs made for bulk bags of soil coming on Thursday and we have a work party to build the beds on Friday. A big sign saying ‘Soil here’ needed for the soil delivery. Find some poly pockets? That might be a step too far!

It’s all happening for real and manure has already arrived. Funding has been received and we have room to take two big raised beds. I have gravel to make paths around the bed and to finish off some of the rough bits. I’d like to have paths around the beds. A sign will be made for the front which explains what’s happening. The Heritage wants us to keep the front green? Well, this is one way to do that!

I may need to strim the hedge at the front so that the beds get enough light. And fill the green bin pretty quickly…
