The woods and orchard are flooded with snowdrops at the moment. Two years ago, we planted out hundreds of blubs and now we are reaping the rewards. It looks so beautiful.

So excited to start planting again! Right now is the perfect time to get your seed potatoes planted.

It’s been a busy week at Broadspear clearing all the debris from Storm Eunice, but we are getting there! As spring is nearly here we are getting busy getting everything prepared. Here’s what I was doing in the garden this week.

Get our witch hazel arches ready for netting our cruciferous vegetable bed, planting my broad bean seedlings and potting up dahlias.

This week Nollie has been helping us to lay out the seeds for a wild flower meadow at Broadspear in the lawn in front of the walled garden

With many places in the world experiencing harsh lockdown’s again people are looking for projects to get stuck into over the coming months. Well look no further than a Tulip planting project.

If you haven’t planted out your bulbs yet, don’t fret, you have until the end of November.

We planted our bulbs last autumn and to see their glorious colours explode around the garden was like a ray of sunshine.

July has been all about picking the fruits of my labour and enjoying recipes with my veg patch ingredients as the hero. But don’t forget that July is also a time to get ready for harvesting later in the year.

This week, all the wood from clearing through the woodlands to make a pathway was chopped into fire wood.
