... greater than spuds ...

Having seen how wonderful the double dug and well manured soil now looks and feels we are moving away from our policy of "spuds and only spuds" to a multi-culture of ... peas (Kelvedon Wonder), broad beans (Masterpiece Green Long Pod), spinach beet (Perpetual), sweetcorn (Kelvedon Glory), parsnip (Improved Hollow Crowned), beetroot (Boltardy), cabbage (Ormskirk Late), brussels sprouts (Wellington), pumpkin (Invincible), cougette (Jaguar) and nasturtium (Dwarf Compact). Hopefully not biting ogg more than we can chew in the processs.

So this weekend Matty, Olly and Johnty will be getting busy with making newspaper plant pots and getting this little lot to germinate on windowsills across the whole house.
