Started re build of the fruit cage as falling down put new post in getting ready for the netting the top net seems ok with some holes these can be sown together with fishing twine
Tied in the Tay berry and loganberry also planted my autumn raspberries new bed variety Joan j and all gold also got a dwarf autumn raspberry which we will see the progress later next year
Planted some red gooseberries these will be trained as cordons taking up less room also because of the open nature don’t suffer to much from mildew
Started to sell onions in trays £1 each These are Senshu but somebody pinched a tray without paying that’s a good start what an idiot ,I hope their crops fail this year .
Horticulture mad volunteer for a local Sprowston Glasshouse Growers Project also with a group of young who wish to learn how to grow plants also widened our growing production to involve a Sensory garden at the Sprowston Library .We have also completed a small heritage fruit orchard in Sprowston growing a number of rare varieties local to Norfolk
The project also helps with teaching gardening skills young and old and we have areas which have been taken in wildflower border, sensory garden, also a free patch which people can help themselves on a barter operation called GROW FREE
