seedling sale

More time on the plot has meant no time for blogging. With loads of help from Jo (and her heated propagator and greenhouse) we've been raising and planting out rows and rows of seedlings.

Sunday was also our annual Seedling Sale:

And despite an iffy weather forecast, it turned out to be our most successful sale ever. We sold a terrific number of tiny plants,

as well as seemingly endless mugs of coffee and tea and over 120 slices of cake. But I'm so glad I'm not on the cafe rota this weekend, because as brilliant as it was, I don't think I've quite recovered!

  1. Oooo wish I lived closer I would have come down for some cake (I mean seedlings!)
    The two together do seem irresistible though!

  4. If the allotments in the background of your photos are anything to go by, its going to be a good harvest this year! (And you can't have too much cake!)
