Guided Work Party - June 8th
A perfect day for gardening, partial cloud and quite warm! Selina was keen to get the rest of the summer crops in, so after a quick second to weed those that had grown in the last couple of weeks, more of the vertical growing supports were erected and cucumbers, squash and tomatoes planted. We noted that the garlic spathes have now started to appear, although only in one variety so far. And the broad beans (fava beans) were ready to have their tops removed as greedy black fly have been attracted by the soft juicy foliage. Some celery seedlings were added to the eastern herb bed, and the bean bed was prepared ready for the school group to plant later this week.
