Now that there’s been a break in the weather and building fences have been removed, we have been able to get back to the garden to do some much needed maintenance.

Last week we watered the garden with some of the worm wine we’ve been harvesting. We roped off two small ‘control’ areas, where we didn’t apply the growing juice, so we’ll be waiting to see if there is any difference in plant growth.

This week we did some more weeding and thinning. The patch of Canterbury Bells was particularly thick, so Clare brought along some containers and soil to pot up some of the seedlings for the eco warriors to take home.  

The team broke into groups to make holes in the potting cups, put soil in, pot up the seedlings, and write up labels, and then we broke out and did some general weeding and thinning. Our carrots are looking like they are halfway there!
