So as the title says we have some beans growing now, the potato's have started to grow too. I've dug over 2 new beds then added a thick layer of manure and compost mulch to them, in the first one I've got Kohlrabi and a courgette plant in, I will be adding some cauliflower, the other bed has some shallots in (yes I know I've planted them way too late but they were only 50p so was worth a go) I will add some pak choi to that bed too.
I've got a raised bed filled with broccoli plants and swiss chard seeds. both this and the other 2 beds have been covered over with netting or fleece to protect them.
I've dug another small patch where I've planted some flowers, lavender, and wild flower seeds for the Bee's. My borage plant in the garden has been a bit hit with the bees so far this year so I will save some seed from that and try to grow some more on the plot.
I've also now got a shed and greenhouse! The Greenhouse is already housing 4 cucumber plants, 2 tomatos plants and 3 melon plants. I've never grown melon or cucumber before so that is going to be on going learning with those.
One of the my lovely neighbours there has given me a chicken coop, I will have to get that cleaned up this week and re felted ready for building the chicken enclosure.
There are loads of photos on this post, I will try now to post at least once a week so the posts are so photo heavy.
Oh, if you are wondering what the burning is referring to in the title, well that would be referring to my skin! Even with sun cream I burn, although for the first time pretty much ever (or at least as long as I can remember) I have actually got a bit of colour on me rather than me being pure white, this gardening lark is certainly giving me some unexpected, although good, results :)
