It was a solo deed this time at Thorlands. The sun was out, and the weather was warm 👌

We decided to stay in the walled garden this time round, and leave the heavy work for when we have more hands on deck. First task was to add compost to some soil and break it down, to allow the rest of the team at Thorlands to begin filling up some seed trays. That time of the year!

My next, and final, task was to sift the soil in the big planters, removing pesky roots and slugs/snails (be free! But don't come back). Ready to be planted now.

Hopefully next time we'll be able to make a big push to developing that forest garden!
