Not just veg from the allotment!🌸🌻🌱

My allotment greenhouse didn't make it through the February storms so I made a pond in it's place! Only problem is I spend too much time watching the pond critters rather than weeding the plot! 🦟🪳🐌🌱

Lots of lovely food brought home from the allotment this evening! 🌱

Castlerigg stone circle last night; summer solstice sunset. There was a huge thunderstorm which was awe inspiring! If you look carefully you can see the ancient stones in the shadows. Could be a scene from thousands of years ago!

My first carrots this year!

Lupins looking lovely on the allotment! 🌱🌻

Peas planted out!🌱

Such lovely pear tree blossom on the allotment. Hope I get some pears this year 🌱

Finished work early so I could spend a couple of hours on the allotment. Lifted the dahlias which we grew from seed this year. Exciting to see the tubers, first time growing dahlias! 🌱🌸

This borage was growing in my garden in September 2021, so striking 🌱🌸

Just back from the allotment, my first ever leek! So many potatoes...! 🌱

The dahlias are still going strong in the allotment, this little bee was having a snooze I think 🌱🌼🐝
