Trainspotting and sunshine

Friday 26th Feb

​A late start again on plot 33 the jobs today was to finish covering the 3rd bed with cardboard, levelling the edge and removing any couch grass roots left behind from the old wooden posts removed on Monday. A very satisfying job especially when you pull a long root out from under the path. While I pottered way Anne got stuck into digging over the 4th bed

​We’ve met a few new faces too today, soon we will need a chart to keep names faces and plots in order. Everyone says we’re making good progress and can see a big difference which is encouraging as it’s easy to forget what the plot looked like back in January when we got the keys.

​Sitting in the sunshine eating our lunch and admiring the view over Stoke Anne spotted a train pulling in the usually busy Stoke station. While closer to I spotted the first signs of life in the greenhouse. 

Radishes have started to germinate in the greenhouse 

Looks like spring is round the corner!
