Christmas Wreaths Part One

This week  we started making Christmas wreaths. We wrap paper  and wire  round a ring frame and I made two today. Next week we will decorate  them.

                                                                                                                               

Peas go in

I haven't much time today so I have to make this  short. we  planted  the peas in  the beds today and we wrote out labels for them.

Stick day

We made climbing frames for the peas to grow up. Harriet and Sue showed us how. Because it's  autumn there were lots of leaves on the ground. We picked  them up, then did a little weeding.

Goodbye to Lou Farrow's

We did weeding at the allotment today and planted garlic in the ground. Lou Farrow's, the café that we often go to on a Tuesday was still closed, so we went to the Pop Inn again for lunch. Chantelle found out that Lou Farrow's is turning into a restaurant. That's a pity, because it was my favourite spot to have lunch...always!    

Picking squash and plantng garlic

We took our squash out today. We planted cloves of garlic. Over winter it will grow into bulbs. We also did some weeding and then put some manure down and turned the soil over to work the manure in. Lou Farrow's, the café I wanted to go was closed today. This is most unusual. Normally it's open. We had to go the Pop Inn instead.

 

Planting in the rain

I planted red runner beans this morning. I didn't need to water them because it already rained this morning. We went to the Pop Inn for lunch. I'm glad we got to out today despite the rain!

Washed out...

 It's been two weeks since I've been to the allotment. Last Tuesday it was impossible to do anything because of heavy rain. Anyway, that meant that a little bit of weeding was needed today.    

 

Early days...
