It’s been a very wet week. Inbetween spring and summer, just waiting for the sun to come and stay for more than a day at a time. The rain must be doing good things for my new no dig beds though, which have, in the past, seemed to need a bit of a helping hand for water when planted up when they are newly made, as the cardboard layer takes a good few months to rot down and the compost layer on top has a tendency to dry out quite quickly.
The days are lovely and long and the birds are busy getting ready to raise their baby’s. I am woken early to the dawn chorus and thoughts of a long list of jobs that are pressing! Potting on and planting out. The endless checking and rehoming of slugs and snails from the greenhouse whilst devising friendly plans for mitigating their mischiefs from my future seed sowing plans.
The apple blossom has burst this week and the scent is magical. There is hope and promise in the air- this may be my favourite moment of the year.
So with that said, it’s just a quick post this week to share a few garden snaps and wish you a happy week ahead!
Blessings from this patch to yours, until next time, Rebecca
