Time for a Vlog! Please help my channel out by giving the video a like and subscribing. It would be great to build a small community on YouTube. In this episode, I sow courgette, lettuce, radish, peas, and tomatoes. We’ve had a stunning and really warm April and I’m keen to make sure I get…

End of February
It’s the end of February and I thought it was a good time to have a quick catch up and show you how things are progressing with our house extension.
