Garden Diary

After the suspense of early summer, waiting and hoping, we’ve now got endless rows of lettuce, rocket, mizuna, mustard frills.

When you open the bags, the smell is incredible.

What We Do

People, family, friends, they are the most important things in our lives and all we do everyday is for them. A lot of this can be quite mundane, repetitive... get up, go to school, clear up, put away, feed the dog etc. But the great moments, maybe almost the reason we live, are the moments when we get together.

Garden Diary

Today as I edit this for the website it is the end of June. It feels like the kindest month before Cornwall fills up and the warmth is new and gentle. All the planting out and my horticulture exams took over and left no time for writing.
Nevermind, old news is good news…

Garden Diary

There was a content, busy silence between the two of us today, as if muddy hands needed quiet, leading the way toward the needs of the garden. The sun shone as our bodies were carried around by the Cornish spring breeze. Blissfully focused as hours passed us by and without our minds tied to time we were urged on by plants, new and old.
