Planting Chocolate Eggs

Easter Sunday saw us down on the plot, where small children hunted for chocolate eggs (which we did not see). First job of the holy day was to fathom out why our unique water collection system was not working and why two weeks of rain had resulted in a mere puddle in the oil drum. To cut a long and boring story short our water was going up hill! To resolve this gravitational issue one landgirl reversed the pipe work to point down hill.
Planting & Digging

Carrots, parsnips and beetroot were all sown (fingers crossed, as not had much joy in previous years with carrots). Creating a border for wildflowers turned into more of a landscaping exercise with the discovery of a huge bit of carpet underneath the earth!
