🌱And last, but not least, were the different varieties of peas growing wild. Many colors, but I liked this little one💗

Fen life watching Marsh Harriers (not pictured). For a brief period the clouds broke, the mist has been very present the last few days. The Sedge in Winter is always such a wonderful thing, but then I’ve always loved Helsinki in the darkness of Winter too, I know some people find this quite bleak. 🌱

Whilst there’s still food & gift shopping to do, I’m distracted by converting an old cracked fish tank into a fruiting chamber. As there are no side holes, apart from the cracks, I’ll have to open the main vent regularly. Fingers crossed it works.🌱

As we head towards the Winter solstice and the return of the light, which means another season of growing herbs…
Thank you to everyone who’s supported our small, family business in 2025.
Enjoy the Christmas and New Year break as we will whilst we’re closed for two weeks for a well deserved rest 🌱🇬🇧

Tis the Winter Solstice, one of the oldest pagan celebrations, marking the shortest day & the longest night.
Coincidentally, it is also the 4th Sunday of Advent, celebrating Hope, Peace, Joy & Love.
However you mark the occasion (or not) have a good day, take care.

Daffodils spotted at RHS Wisley, nature always reminds us that seasons progress regardless of what else is happening in our lives.

Holly was one of our most useful and common trees - as well as having special powers to protect us against witches. We even have holly wreaths at Christmas - does this still protect us?🌱https://www.heraldscotland.com/life_style/25700573.holly-bogey-man-scotlands-forgotten-tree/?ref=li
Why holly has been a bogey-man for Scotland’s forgotten tree
Holly has a long association with Christmas and pre-Christian festivities in Scotland.

Quick check on the wormery to see if the additional insulation is keeping it frost free. Glad to see the worms ok & at work 🌱
