 Bring it on 2026

The year 2025 was a very mixed bag.

As is evident by the title of this blog, I am a very very lazy gardener.  I did the bare minimum.  It shows. 

At the end of the poor growing season, I didn't even bother to cover the vegetable patch with ground cover to suppress the substantial weeds that have taken over.  

I have a couple of pathetic red cabbages that are not worth picking, one frost damaged celery and a whole lot of weeds. 

The area that used to house the chickens was taken over with bee hives and a whole lot of perennial nettle.

Here is my vow (not a new year's resolution) 

I am going to get the vegetable garden back into shape.

I have just over a week off in February.  I am devoting this week to whipping the garden back into shape.

Let's see how we get on. 

In my favour:

I absolutely know what to do.

I have two greenhouses and a polytunnel that are ready for service.

I am healthy and can do this work

I have also decided to give this blog a bit of attention.

I must confess that social media has taken the place of my blog.  I hope to redress this imballance.
