Garden-Time Again!

A few months ago I could not muster up enthusiasm for gardening... and thought 'naw... don't think I will bother this year.'..

Then... the sun came out... spring was in the air and I was raring to go again...

So I rounded up my helpers (sometimes called 'hinderers'!) and they knew exactly what I wanted to do with these new tubs I bought to grow the potatoes in!!!!

Alex itching to get started...once he can figure out how to get out so that we can put the potatoes in.....

'These make good boats while empty....'

OK - now we're getting the hang of it.....

Even had some reinforcements lined up.....just in case....All the seed trays came in very handy this year..... and we haven't planted anything outside yet... as we are still having frosty nights..... so far we have done... corn on the cob, brussels sprouts, cabbage, tomatoes, runner beans, courgettes.... I will also try my hand at strawberries, carrots, onions, lettuces, soem herbs and raspberries...

Now all that remains to be seen is if my beginner's luck has run out from last year!!!

And just in case you think I am doing it all myself..... we have roped everyone in.... Darrelle does not know it yet.. but she will be the #1 weeder..:)

Alex wanted to be involved in EVERY part of it....

Jacko under strict instructions , on pain of death NOT to uproot anything from these planting beds or to bury any bones !!!

Only time will tell.....
