Louise and Abz, hard at work, sieving compost.

Peppers and chillies and tomatoes, oh my! We've been picking these for months!

We've been busy again! In between the rain, Mike harvested some lovely cauliflower. There's also a lot of maintenance work to be done so Jon and Mike dug out masses of bind weed to prepare the ground. They also learned about apple tree pruning from our garden leader, Ruth.

Here's our chard, figs, garlic, broccoli and rain water catchment system full of water! How's YOUR week going? (We're great. Thanks for asking. 😆)

Hello on this blustery, autumn day! The seasons have well and truly changed but it's still all go at Harmony Gardens - when is it not?! 😆 We thought you might like to see some of the goji berries, figs and rosehips we collected. Don't they look delicious?!

[Harmony Gardens GG @HarmonyGG]

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to @Wickes for providing us with materials (as part of their community programme) to build a new water catchment system. We are so grateful!

Equally HUGE thanks to our wonderful volunteer, Jon, who built the system. We appreciate you!

Here's what we've been up to this week! We had a BBQ, because why not?! Also, our volunteer, Mike, burnt some wood left over from demolishing the old shed and Jon gave the longer pieces of wood a karate kick 😆 before they went into the fire. Mike also planted some kale out.

Hello! We just wanted to share this picture and congratulate our volunteer, Vikki (seen here with some of our other volunteers, Jon and Mike) on receiving her gardening skills certificate!

Have you ever smelt comfrey fertiliser? If not, you're in for a treat! 😅😷 It might not be pleasant to human noses but the plants love it. This week, we harvested our comfrey leaves and made four buckets of fertiliser!
