Our Vlog

​

Last lot of Casablance potatoes lifted and bed dug over

Lifted all the shallots

Bought some Purple Sprouting broccoli plants

Day out on North Yorkshire Moors

Still watering

Rain but in the wrong place

What heatwave?

Quarrying our remaining Casablance potatoes - video

​

​

We had a heavy rain shower

Sowed green manure - buckwheat and grazing rye.

Visited North Yorkshire Moors

Picking Oullins Gage plum and greengages.

Pruned out old canes of Glencoe and Black Jewel raspberries and tied in the new cane

Pruned on bed of jostaberries and gooseberries

Potted up some rooted runners from Sweetheart strawberry

Made and froze tomato sauce

Picked first bunch of grapes from garden greenhouse.

At last we had rain

Watering's not required

Wrong sort of rain or soil?

Green manure and a summer storm - video

Time for a few other jobs.

A return to watering duties

​

​

Lifted more potatoes

Prepared bed for autumn onions

Planted purple sprouting broccoli

Thinned more grapes.

Cut out this years fruiting canes of summer raspberries and tayberry

Tied in tayberry

Picked lots of greengages.

Had some rain so less watering needed temperatures dropped too.

Picked first sweetcorn cob

Picked cauliflowers and cabbage from second planting

It's still summer isn't it?

Forgotten what a wet day is like

I'm to blame
