Hello and happy Friday. This week I asked our Facebook group to send in their gardening photos. One of which I would use for the banner shot. The winner was Sarah Baddeley. I think you will agree its an unusual take. Sarah wins a goody bag.
If you would like to join this friendly group of gardeners please click here. Its been a rather wet week for most of us. I have suffered some damage to my polytunnel. Nothing that cannot be fixed though. A few weeks ago I gave a good friend some of my new stock of sweetcorn seeds Golden Hind and they are doing fantastic. He has green fingers, as they say. I on the other hand have to really work at it. My six year old granddaughter Ruby planted tomato seeds at school. They look great. We will keep an eye on them Ruby. I hope teachers are coming around to the huge benefits of giving the children in their charge a grounding in growing vegetables. Please spread the word that I can put together strawbale gardening classes for schools etc. Please get in touch. I am busy putting together new varieties of vegetable, herb and flower seeds, ready for our new look seeds page. Happy and safe growing x Simon.
