Finally got some bees on my #allotment. I found 5 on there at the same time last night. They love the onion and leek flowers I grew for them.

#allotment is really coming to life now. Just dumped a load of homemade compost (more like mulch) on the potatoes. Felt good being to use my made stuff.

Is it just me, or is there some a bit evil and sinister about Potato plants?

Using branches to put the foxes and birds off seems to be working. Like how this looks a lot better than netting .

Seedling are really starting to takeover the house. It’s the first year I’ve done my own seedlings. Lots of work, but very satisfying. #allotments #gardening #veg

Created these no dig beds for some potatoes I’m going to sow in the #allotment, in a few weeks time.

Feels like I’m sort of shutting down the #allotment for the winter, which is a bit sad. With the evenings closing in, I’ve had less time to depend there, so works out well in a way.

Spent a whole day in the #allotment today.

Made a big trellis. Planted blackberrys and loganberry’s, a plum and an apple tree.

Good for the soul.

Where there is a will… there is a way.

Inspiring to see how pure ingenuity and dedication can break down any barrier.

Alan Turing is such a hero. We spent the day at #bletchleypark, learning about the WW2 codebreakers.

Pumpkin at the #allotment is starting to turn orange. Crazy how the process works.
