It’s time to start the first of the direct sowings! Today I’m sowing carrots, leeks, spring onions and parsnips……and some more calendula. It feels great to see the beds opening up again after the long rest they’ve had over winter.

After a lengthy absence it’s time to get back into the garden. Some things are growing well (garlic)….others are a total fail (leeks)…..but some exciting new seeds to try next year make up for the disappointment.
The gift of spare seedling leeks from another gardener has made me so happy………as did my trip to a local nursery to buy herbs (with a kindly given gift voucher) to replace those which were killed in transit. A ‘quick’ visit?……hmmmm…..there’s no such thing……once I am in the garden I find it hard to leave.
