Orchard Training Homeschool Garden Club - January
We are thinking about onions once again! We have been looking closelya t the seed catlouges and make good use of the 99p seed sales and free delivery deals we have found. Some of us want to give exhibition onions ago, it does mean that a certain Gramps will have to kindly surrender some of his glasshouse to us - but thankfully he is willing to do so on the grounds that we don't beat him in the competition!
The broad beans have had another sessional sowing. The first lot will go out in March and this lot are planned for April.
We have also started a program of cutting back the nut bushes, some have grown to big for the space. And a very vicious rose has been dug out - or as one of the Y7's but it it was sawn out, first! (we are doing homophone in English and we all appricated the pun as we needed to saw quite a bit of it down to get close enough to dig.)
Our last job on the list was to wash pots, but thanks to the Homeschool Garden members rota - we didn't have any. A blessing in desguise as the weather has been absolutely awful - we didn't want to spend time doing that job when we could look at seed catalogues and garden magazines in side in the warm.
