Memory Lane, 23rd February 2023: Winter salads are still going
Straight from the polytunnel. Not quite as much as we’d like perhaps, but it’s just enough for three people and it’s lovely to be eating something so fresh and colourful at this time of the year.
Memory Lane, 21st December 2022: Winter salads
Winter salads in the melon house and polytunnel, looking pretty healthy. With a bit of luck these should keep us going until Spring when we have salads growing out in the main plot once again.
Memory Lane, 8th October 2022: Winter salads
With the melons and aubergines removed from one of the greenhouses a couple of days ago it was time to get the Winter salads in — some radishes that may or may not do well, winter-hardy lettuces and mustard leaves. … Continue reading

No dig diary, 31st August 2021
Last winter I grew salad leaves in the greenhouse, in mushroom trays lined with newspaper and filled with compost. This year I intend to plant most of the plants for winter salads in the polytunnel and no-dig greenhouse once the … Continue reading

Looking last night at the forecast for today it was heavy rain all day with thunderstorms this afternoon. I didn’t therefore feel compelled to drag myself out of bed particularly early, but when I did so found that it wasn’t … Continue reading

No dig diary, 11th July 2021
Today my daughter and I shredded another trailer and a half of sycamore before rain stopped play. I reckon there are about three trailer loads left of what I cut yesterday, but that will have to wait for another time. … Continue reading
