As you guys know, we have a bit of a nightmare with trees in our garden. There are a couple of reasons, firstly the wind just seems to burn so much of the new, more delicate growth and secondly, we just suck at the whole tree in a container thing. […]
We aren’t all lucky enough to have huge gardens and enormous greenhouses, so we need to be a bit clever about how we organise the space, to make the most of what we have. I’ve done vlogs and blogs on this topic before and took you guys along as I […]
I swear, every time I turned on social media over the last few months, someone is sticking some seeds in a big plastic milk carton. What’s going on? The interwebs is a weird and wonderful place. So a wee bit of research (what I mean is I spoke to a […]
