Our Mid Winter Gardening Day

We haven't been in the garden for quite a few weeks.
We need to do lots of weeding.  We had to be very careful weeding around the plants so we didn't pull them out.

 Our spring onions, red cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, and kale were all growing well.
The lettuce had been pecked at by the birds. They were a bit messy. We picked some lettuce from the bottom garden to take home.

In our bottom garden we planted a green crop - mustard seed.We can dig these plants into the soil to give the soil nitrogen.We put some fertiliser  into the soil.

In the top garden we planted some new seeds in rows.
We planted rocket, beetroot and carrots, and labelled these rows in the garden.
When we had finished planting we gave everything a drink of water.
