More Planting whilst it rains!

On Wednesday this week we planted more peas and beans into our paper pots. This will give us successional crops later in the year. Our previous ones are now showing shoots in the greenhouse. We also sowed some cauliflower seeds and Danielle drew great pictures on the label sticks (picture to follow later!) On Thursday, Miss Swallow collected some more soil for the willow seat. Unfortunately by lunch time, it was raining so having the full waterproofs, she had the pleasure of tipping it into the seat whilst the others had lunch in the shed!


It is almost full now: We prepared bags of soil ready to plant potatoes next week. For the last few minutes, we sowed oat! We were sent a pack from Scotland "Eco-schools" along with instructions on how to dry and thresh them, to make oat cakes from!! Let's see how they grow first!
