Queen Street Easter Weekend.
After a fabulous night making connections and celebrating the wide variety of groups at the Haven Charity Shop evening and receiving a very generous cheque for £1000, Storm Kate didn’t stop work carrying on at Queen Street on Saturday.
Brian built up the edging on one of the lasagne beds. After Laura May and I deciding our skills are better placed elsewhere (Obviously Laura May thought far away elsewhere, and is on holiday in the Canaries!). A quicker tidier and all together more professional job was done too!!
I planted 2 rows of early potatoes (Rocket), cleared the polytunnel and filled it with seeds that I had sown last weekend. I cut back the privet hedge that Laura and Bob cut down last year and have stored it for pea sticks. I planted 2 rows of Centurion onions.
On Sunday I planted up more seeds and Sheila McAinsh is kindly giving them a home in her greenhouse and will look after them! That is the plants for the Legume bed and the Brassica beds all sown and a lot more besides to give away. I have sown an abundance of Peas and after cutting my bamboo, I am going to dry this out and we can hopefully give away pea kits. (Plants and sticks to make tepee frames.)
Have put a shout on Facebook for getting the watering Rota up and running again so any volunteers would be welcome just let me know via the FB page or the email.
