Four generations gardening

My mother, daughter and granddaughter were all at the plot on Sunday helping me to get my legumes in and pot on some plants and fit the roof to my new fruit cage.
We planted out the pea's iv'e grown in pots and also placed a few beds from seed.
Also the last of my beans which are french, borlotto and runner
That's four generations including me, all enjoying the lovely weather.
All three seemed to enjoy it and we caught a tan as well.
After all this i put my Brassicas in the cold frame to get ready for planting out at the weekend weather permitting.

Also my tadpoles are growing and their mum still hangs around in the pond.

mulch

Its not much but its effective.

3 Barrows full and a patch of compost later.

That should keep the weeds at bay and the mud off my boots.

The manure patched bed is my purple asparagus.

Weed weed weed

I spent the morning digging up my leeks which are now simmering in the pan to make soup with.
I then removed my plants from the same bed which is going to have my wall rebuilt next week.
Once i had completed the plant removal i weeded out the perennial weeds which were very big and very deep but i got them all out and left them on the path to dry out in the afternoon sun.
Next i decided to weed the lower asparagus bed ready to cover it with manure and then wood-chips.
I also harvested my first Rhubarb so a nice crumble is on the cards now mmmmmm.
Just before leaving i checked on my Tadpoles who seem to be loving my little pond.
And my plumb tree is in full bloom with new leaves following on.

All i need do now is add the manure and wood chips.

They are small but you can just make them out.

I hope the bee's have been busy pollinating the flowers.
