Busy weekend
Yesterday was a frenzy of seed planting - mostly flowers. Calendula, sunflowers, french marigold, foxgloves, poppies...
The tomatoes are needing to be repotted, so that was done, and got a lot of runner beans started.
At the allotment yesterday - planted the rest of the spuds, and onions and shallots. All the flowers are in too - so the cutting garden should be producing in a month or so - fingers crossed.
Today was back with the class, we put in loads of autumn fruiting raspberries - probably need a few summer ones, strawberries and blackcurrants. Sowed some carrots seeds on top of the sheet mulch, and put some sticks round the broad beans to support them. It's starting to look like something - must take some photos for here..

You have been busy on all fronts!I hope we are not being lulled into a false sense of security with this current spell of fine weather, i have put things out on the allotment too so fingers crossed.
Peggy - Today we took the summer clothes out of the attic - hope that we're not tempting fate! But it's great to see the growth starting in earnest.
I say go ahead and tempt fate - roasting hot weather has been something of a luxury here for the last wee while. Hopefully the heat in the soil will keep everything going okay.
The boys went off to school in shorts today - great to see!
