The Veggie Patch


I have been a bit slow getting the veggie patch in this year. As soon as we got back from our overseas trip I put some seeds into the trays, but they have taken a while to germinate and grow and are nearly ready to plant out. We grew a lovely crop of field peas this year- you grow them over winter and then dig them in and they put lots of nitrogen back in the soil. Last week I mowed them down and then dug them in, this weekend I planted some peas and beans. Hopefully next week the seedlings will be ready to plant out. It was good to finally get some of these jobs done!
