A very productive morning tackling some overgrown brambles in the village. We even had our own spectators! 🐮 👨🌾
There are a lot of roses out in bloom at the moment… but when is it best to start pruning?
Make sure you do it at the right time to avoid damaging them… Follow link in the comments below!
Looking for garden inspiration can be a bit of a mind field but we have found some beautiful gardens which may inspire you.
If you’re thinking of giving your garden some TLC and fancy a bit of a change, just send us a message and see how we can help you 👨🌾
Raised bed installed with pumpkins and lettuce co-planted ✅
These beds are super easy to work with and help keep everything at a good height to save digging in the ground, perfect if you want to take up a no dig approach in your garden.
For anyone looking to add to their garden - this is well worth a visit!
We have our beautiful Sweet Mock Orange growing and the flowers smell incredible!
Since mock orange blooms in late spring to early summer, they are usually cut back once a year in late May or June as the flower on the previous years wood.
We would highly recommend planting this shrub set back within your boarder as ours is around 10ft tall now but can be maintained to a required height if pruned properly.
Some cottage garden inspiration from today
Who’s home composting??
This is a photo of one of our compost bins just before we turned it. You can see how it’s all breaking down and will make excellent fertiliser for the soil.
There are lots of good reasons to compost. It can save money if done properly, it can help to improve your soil and can also reduce your impact on the environment! Research has found that almost half of the food waste in the average rubbish bin could have been composted.
If you would like help with your garden and want to make it more eco friendly just get in touch 😄
If anyone is looking to get started on their garden or want to add to their garden. We would highly recommend visiting Green's Plant Sales !

Who’s starting to think about their pollinators for next year??
Thinking ahead to next year, it’s important to start thinking about what you can do in either your allotment or outdoor space to help promote as many pollinating flowers as possible. This really encourages the bees who help spread some love around your allotment which in turn creates a better crop 🙌
All coming along nicely down at the allotment!
It’s only a small patch (9 x 6ft), but we planted a few spring bulbs last year and have just sprinkled wild flower seeds to hopefully attract those 🐝 to help pollinate our allotment
Broad beans coming along really nicely !
Feel excited thanks to & 🙌
These little gems came in the post today. As soon as the little ones are back at school we can get to work 💪.
Let’s keep supporting children and give them as many opportunities as possible to learn about growing plants, flowers and veggies 💕

Very pleased with the new potting table installed today at Sywell and Overstone Preschool 💪 everything was handmade and used recycled materials with no wastage. Hopefully the children get some enjoyment from this…
Keep your 👀 open for more and plans.
