Rain - rain - rain…..
Typical British weather - some might say - and surely we do get a bit of it, but really, it isn’t that bad!
What this means, however, is that I didn’t manage to get everything I wanted to do on my plot done. I was going to dig over another patch - something I’ve tried to do over the winter when possible - while taking some pictures to post here on the site, to show how I’m doing.
I did manage to get a load of manure from a local riding school, and just as I finished barrowing it on to my plot, my goodness did it start to lash it down? You bet!
So the pictures will have to wait to some day later this week, as will my write up on digging a plot, since this can’t be done when the ground is wet.
My weekend hasn’t been entirely washed out though! The rain gave me an opportunity to turn my attention to other things I have wanted to do for a while:
- Start planning what I’m going to grow on my plot this season
- Begin looking for what seeds to buy - and where.
- Find and buy a wormery for my plot - to produce my own compost/plantfood for the coming season.
With regards to the wormery - I found and ordered one - and no doubt you’re going to hear more about how I’m getting on with it!
I will be back with more news in the week to come - when I have more to tell…..
