KW-25 It's that fruitarian part of the year

The cellar is dry.

It rained this morning. For three minutes between 05.31 and 05:34 and again for maybe a minute and a half around 6am.

strawberries. I shall apply straw today

It’s not exactly what we need, but at least it has cooled everything down a bit, and I am looking forward to a full day in the garden.

I was looking through photos from 1, 2 and 3 years ago, and it looks like we’re actually pretty much on target. The potatoes are bang on where they were in their best year. The peas and beans are as good or better. I’m feeling really good about the tomatoes, but don’t want to shout about it because you never know.

Oh, and that reminds me, I have to give the polytunnel a really good going over today. It’s looking good, but a couple of hours and it’ll look perfect. And I’ve actually not been up to the vineyard for a week.

Tell you what. I shall go now, and take a completely unprepared photo of it.
