Despite the snow today, I managed to make progress with my food production for this season. I have now potted up two little apple trees which had been contained in very small bags for several years. Last year they produced a small crop of good-sized apples (I did thin the young fruits out).
I also washed my potatoes today and placed them in trays in a window to chit. I am growing 6 varieties this year - a record for me if I can achieve it.
I also started some seed off in an airing cupboard. The seeds I chose were skirret, celeriac, lettuce and Jerusalem artichoke - they might sound unusual, but I will be growing more ordinary vegetables as well.

I took 4 bags of home-made compost down to my allotment in a bike trailer recently, to put on my new beds.
