A VISITOR FROM THE GARDENING COURSE IN MARCH
It was brilliant to see Sian from the gardening course in March, she's helping on a couple of our volunteer Wednesdays. Here she is with the tatties and onions they planted on the course, now almost fully grown. That's a picture of her own flourishing garden on her phone, of which she is rightly proud :-)
KEEPING ON TOP OF THE WEEDS...
Everything's growing like mad at Perth Community Farm... including the weeds of course. We have various non-chemical ways of keeping a bit of a check on them with mulching and cover crops etc but at the end of the day there's always some hand weeding to do. Still the farm has probably never had such a big area in production before and there's some great crops coming along.
