Easter Monsters on the loose

Hip Hip Hooray the sun was shining today. BB and Nanny came for Easter lunch and some of us (if not all of us Louis!) were keen to do some family potato planting in celebration.

Dad dug the trenches for our chitted Pots and the boys put the Pots in and tried to cover them over with soil. Neil was Easter Bunny and the boys went off at full pelt to find the chocolate eggs around the plot. Louis on a higher level zipping all over the place whilst Sammy wandering around munching away with everything going on around him, taking it all in.

Neil and I dug over some of the soil again and we covered the Beetroot with the poly tunnel to help save them from the devil slugs when the young leaves begin to show. I fully expect it to take weeks and weeks what with this cold slow start to the year but I am still excited about it all coming up!




Lovely to have everyone up there and see things about to happen, I think it really is food for the soul as well as the plate.
