You can tell that Spring is not far away when
we can enjoy a cup of coffee in the garden without jackets on, and from our special gardening mugs,
and when we prick out the first tomato seedlings,
and when Tulips and Wallflowers flower side by side and clash,
and when all around us Blackbirds sing loudly proclaiming their territorial rights and the song of Goldfinches and Greenfinches fill the air,
and when the first fruit blossom opens,
and when you can finish the day off by making your first harvest of your “cut-and-come -again” salad and herb leaves, and then eat them with eggs produced by your own chickens.
The wallflower and tulips clash beautifully! Cups of tea, nature and milder weather… you’ve just summed up my idea of happiness x
Love the gardening mugs!
Hi there. Found out about this blog via the Grow It magazine and its a lovley blog with great pics. Hope to get my hands on an allotment that the council may start up this year and have planted lots of seedling in preparation although I am a total beginner. Hope to be enjoying a cuppa like you on my allotment soon. Thanks for the pics and blog
Hi there Lesley,
Welcome to my blog – so glad you have found it! Best of luck with lottie hunting.

I would love to join you for a cuppa!
I want to join you too! Such a healthy hobby being one with nature and all that grows from the ground. My husband loves to garden. I’m the one who takes the pics and enjoys everyone’s efforts.
