| Tessa and her cloche |
We have been putting some love in to our front vege beds. The spinach and small lettuces were looking mighty sad and being nibbled by (according to our neighbour who saw the culprits first hand) a family of birds. So we set about creating some protection for our poor plants, not only from the birds but also the cool winter temperatures. We built two cloches, rudimentary in design, (and occasionally the wind blows them away but they are mostly present) however, the plants seem MUCH happier for their little houses.

We also set about weeding the back vege garden and sticking in poles for our wee beans to climb up. And we put some leaf mulch around the bed to provide a bit more insulation for our growing plants. They're looking good despite some very frosty mornings recently. Go little plants go! Whoooooo! (as Phoebe might say)
