There was just one little Tête à Tête in flower near the shed, braving the bitter wind.
A very efficient team of three, today we planted all sorts of seeds for summer harvesting, such a positive and hopeful job. Seeds included lettuce, chillies, peppers, aubergines and tomatoes, several varieties of each. Not much photo opportunity there so I went for a walk around the poly tunnels to see how everything is coming on. Brilliantly is the answer. Many more braver Community Roots volunteers were out in the field, clearing ground and preparing for planting out later. I forgot to take a photo of the gluten free Lemon Cake I made which went down very well at coffee break..
Two very happy volunteers, D and G
All sorts of salad leaves

Gosh golly, you people are a head of us, by a month and a half. I take it those ‘tunnels’ are not heated. Winter is still holding on for dear life, -15C nights, with lots snow on the ground.

You are right, there is no heating in the tunnels and things grow well in there. I can’t imagine -15C! You must have excellent padded jackets etc to keep you warm! It is still cold )for us) here at between 1-8C. It often feels much colder because of the wind chill. Last week there was a day that felt like -7C taking account of the wind. Stay warm! 🙂
