Good morning
Rhubarb, rocket, salad and chives all available from us/Penpont this week – other than that, please use last week’s list.
We have had a busy week. Lots more planting has been done in the tunnels and gardens – beans, peas, salad crops, spinach, rocket, and beetroot has all be planted out, kale has been potted on, and many of our little native trees have been transplanted from their pots. Both fields are now ready for seed sowing – ploughing, rotavating and bed cultivation has all been done. Seeds will be going in in the next couple of days – carrots, parsnips, swede, beetroot, turnip, perpetual spinach, chard and beans.
Not only that, but we also got the opportunity to try out a Saddle Chariot – see picture below. Great fun – and means we may be able to seriously consider using a pony to work on the land and in the garden, as it can have all sorts of implements attached to it – and comes with a wonderful, quick release safety feature which avoids the dangers of a lose, frightened pony with a heap of metal attached to it. Have a look at our new page on our website for more pictures, and the practical uses of the saddle chariot. http://www.beaconsveggieboxes.co.uk/Saddle%20Chariot.htm
