This week we managed to weed our fruit bushes. We also gave them a sprinkling of phosphate feed before watering them and replacing the bark mulch. This will help them fruit again this summer.
They are well in bud now that Spring has arrived.
These ones still need weeding - you can see a big difference!
Meanwhile in the shed, Vicki and Rhiannon started painting a bird-box we got sent from collecting Morrison's vouchers for schools...
...they finished it off in the computer classroom the next day! It was pouring on Thursday - much warmer in here!
Despite the fluctuating weather, the garden is looking good. Daffodils are looking bright, and in the middle ground you can see rhubarb coming up in the tyres.
Classes have also been busy potting up winter pansies...
weeding and generally tidying around the two greenhouses...
...and potting on foxgloves and poppies. We have loads from last year's seeds, so will plant them out all around the garden to encourage insects.
