I take a look back at the garden this time last year……..it’s only been a year but I have already forgotten so much of this……seeing the garden then and how far it has come gives me a good spurt to get going again.

Vivi’s Kitchen Garden 324: All my seeds for 2021.
After a couple of deliveries from seed companies and a sort out of all my own saved seeds I think I finally have all my seeds gathered together for 2021. Yay!
Sunday on the Sofa: My annual ‘Sort-it’ day.
At the beginning of each year I take a day to sort all my bits and pieces for my home…..paperwork, bills, plans, identifying problems etc…..and checking on my safety equipment.
Vivi’s Kitchen Garden 323: Planning the garden for food for a year.
Today I’m having a chat about planning a kitchen garden to maximise the reward of fresh food for the whole year. I share some of my learning from the last few years in my own garden and talk about how I’ll do things this coming year.
Vivi’s Kitchen Garden: January Garden Tour (2021).
It’s the start of a whole new growing year for me……but before I get too excited let’s see how things are looking at the beginning of January. There’s still plenty of good stuff to eat!
Vivi’s Kitchen Garden 322: What to sow in January.
A brand new growing year! It’s hard to contain oneself……..we want to get going! Here I talk about the seeds which can be sown this month and the trees/bushes which can be planted. I also outline my planting ‘zone’ and why we don’t use this term in the UK…….and then to chit, or not to chit?!
Thoughts on Month 44: What a year!
Goodness me, time flies……it doesn’t seem like 44 months…..but never mind that, haha, there’s a bigger Elephant in the room to consider. Yes, deep breath, it’s time to say goodbye to 2020 on the most positive note possible.
Happy Christmas 2020!
Happy Christmas everyone! Join me for a rambling natter, don your Christmas hat, pour yourself something lovely….and grab a gift to open with me.
Christmas Eve: Gentle garden time.
The last window on the calendar and then making the most of the last few rays of sunshine with some very quiet time in the garden.
Advent Day 23: A new bed.
After opening the penultimate window on the calendar I carry on in the garden. Another small job but one which gets me excited for next year.
