Despite the pouring rain, today has been very productive. We started by weeding the polytunnel and planting tomato seedlings.
We then potted up a LOAD of seedlings and started sowing seeds.
A visitor then turned up - John with a trailer full of compost from Keenans!
Luckily it had just stopped raining, so just before lunch we got busy shovelling…
3 tonnes - off the trailer!
This will be fantastic for mulching our beds and borders. It will prevent weeds and improve the structure of the soil. A huge thank you to Keenans for donating to us.
During lunch, John was keen to see our RIDAN hot composter and enjoyed turning it!
After lunch, we pulled some rhubarb to take home and delivered some to Mrs Jack.
We finished the day by planting foxgloves and cowslips into our wildlife garden area. All the pupils were fabulous - hardworking, respectful and keen so well done and thank you to them!
