We used bark from tree trimmings to make paths around our beds
We always have lots of work to do as the weeds can take a hold very quickly.

- We have filled all three compost bins and water them regularly....shhh! we are making compost!
- We are making leaf mould from school leaves collected by Mr Reay.

- We love digging, weeding and sowing seeds
- We have planted seed potatoes, carrots, beetroot, sunflowers and radishes!
- We are watching the raspberry canes, redcurrants, strawberries and rhubarb grow.
