Yesterday, we laid out the vegetable beds in the blazing sunshine. They're still awaiting a nice surround of woodchip mulch to keep the slugs away and a border of logs to keep everything in order
We reused old fence posts to keep the 5 beds organised and tidy 
So far we've planted early potatoes, main crop potatoes, summer cabbage, mizuna, bugetti, watercress, fine curly cress, wild rocket, rocket, buttercrunch, marvel of four seasons, spring onions and endive. There's way to go, but a good start. We're looking to finish this week
Lucius laid under the shade of a canopy in one of the cherry trees and happily chatted to herself and the birds all afternoon
We've planned out two plantings, and left plenty of room to expand if we outgrow it. The garden should be small enough for us to manage, but large enough to help supplement our groceries
The veg garden is planted. Note the lovely rustic supports for the runner beans, courgettes and peas. We're using found or foraged materials wherever possible
Salads are on their way
Tomatoes
Everything is lovingly marked out
The potato plants are bursting through the soil after only a few days
