Many hands make light work
Now the rain has stopped it is definitely time to get to work on the new Matfen field – and there is plenty to do – in a socially distanced way of course.
Unfortunately the onions and garlic planted late last autumn had been washed to the surface and needed to be re-planted (wondering if they’ll grow!). There are many cabbages in the tunnels at Ovington, all ready to be planted out. But before we do that the brassica beds needs some protection from local wildlife (pheasants and rabbits in particular), so low level hoops have been planted and will be covered with netting.
Anyone fancy a little exercise or a distraction on a Thursday? Volunteers are always welcome.
