This weekend was mainly spent cutting the grass, a bit of weeding and doing some last prep for Ashtead Village Day. We also looked at the trees and decided that they will need covering over the next few weeks to prevent someone or something from eating the fruit as it matures.
Also noticed that the slugs have been out in force so we need to get our slug traps in next week. We fill them with left over beer (if such a thing exists) which entices the slugs to go and take a drink instead of nibbling our plants.
Finally, we had a visit from a local resident at the end of the day who kindly gave us a few bean plants along with a courgette plant. Thank you!
