Potato Planting and Sowing Seeds

6 months ago by Katie

Last weekend was a busy old 2 days, first we were off to River Cottage on the Saturday (see previous blog post to read all about that!) and then on Sunday I planned a whole day up the allotment. There were quite a few jobs I wanted to tick off before the garde...

Greenhouse Sowings

6 months ago by Katie

I must admit I'm a little behind on some of my sowings and I feel a little un-organised at the moment what with squeezing in last minute trips to Wales and busy getting ready for the garden shows... I haven't planted my potatoes out yet but hope to do them thi...

Last Minute Jobs

1 year ago by Katie

As I write this I'm currently sitting in bed, looking out my window at a field full of sheep (and two Herdwicks)... you guessed it, I'm back in Wales! This time I'm here for 10 whole days and I couldn't be more happy. However, before I left the allotment I wan...

Sow it begins again!

1 year ago by Katie

The second growing season is officially here and I've been busy up the allotment preparing the vegetable beds for a second batch of crops. There's so many seeds and seedlings you can be planting out and if you have a small plot or garden just like me then you ...

Planting Flowers in the Sunshine

1 year ago by Katie

Well hasn't this bank holiday just been beautiful? We've had blue skies and pure sunshine for 3 whole days and I've enjoyed snippets up at my favourite place plus a trip to Parham Gardens! (blog post to follow shortly) It's been far too hot really to spend ...

Radish Addict

Well isn't this Easter bank holiday a complete washout! Not that I'm letting it dampen my spirits at all, I managed to pop up the allotment yesterday on Good Friday to film another video in the shed and get a few DIY jobs done. Then I spent an hour in the gree...

The perfect start to the weekend

2 years ago by Katie

I haven't been up the allotment or in the greenhouse for 4 whole weeks now and my hands were itching to get dirty. After spending two weeks away in Wales for Valentines day and to help out with lambing I arrived back home to 5 inches of snow which meant the...

Container Growing in 2018

2 years ago by Katie

2018 is the year to try new things and for me that is going to be growing in containers. It's funny because this is what the majority of people start out with and then later evolve into a garden or an allotment, whereas I dived headfirst into owning an allotme...

The first sowings of the year!

2 years ago by Katie

It's that time of year when every gardener is itching to get in the greenhouse and start sowing the first seeds of 2018 and last weekend I did just that! One thing you need to remember is to not get too carried away, there's only a few seeds that can be sown t...

Garlic and the last of the seed shopping…

2 years ago by Katie

I ordered the last of my seed packets from Kings today and I am so excited! We popped to a garden centre last Friday and I had my list of seeds I needed, however the shop only had a few so I made a note to buy the rest online and I did just that. I've been rat...

Plot 15c in 2017

2 years ago by Katie

Well that's another year gone and I honestly don't know where the time went... All those plans and dreams that I made at the beginning of the year vanished too and 2017 went by in a little crazy whirlwind, but a good one at that! Our little Lavender and Lee...
