We have harvested the first of our sprouts today – just a mini-harvest, but very satisfying. There are loads more to come too, which is great.
We also have the first of our daffodil shoots and it’s lovely to see signs of spring in the middle of our bleak midwinter:
There’s not really much else to do at the moment of course, though we did spend quite a while composting the pile of stuff we had to compost – so at least that’s done. We also need to repair the two big raised beds as we didn’t tackle them earlier on. We’ll need to get more wood and posts in but it’s definitely a winter project.

When not writing, she spends time in the garden attempting to differentiate between flowers and weeds, and in the allotment attempting to grow vegetables. Occasionally, she can also be found in the kitchen making cakes. Every now and again, they are edible.
