Not sure where they came from or where they went afterwards, 'tis a bit of a mystery.
Richard heard on the radio yesterday that the best time to water the garden is between midnight and 4am! So this morning, there he was bright and early (not 4am btw) doing the necessary, with his little garden helper in hot pursuit. It's scorching hot here at the moment, I've never experienced a summer like this before, I'm suffering and I'm not the only one. The poor dog got totally over heated yesterday and vomited everywhere whilst we were out. We slept with the front door wide open last night so he could come and go as he pleased and this morning we found him sleeping outside.

We already harvested lots of strawberries, lettuce, rhubarb, spinach and a few new potatoes (teeny tiny ones but we couldn't hold out any longer).
Still to come, that is if the Kale monster doesn't decide to change it's diet, are runner beans, dwarf beans, beetroot, swiss chard, onions, broccoli, courgette, leeks, radish, carrots, cauliflower, tomatoes, pumpkins, red & black currents and plums.
Your garden/allotment is looking good with so much lovely produce. We are also having a mini heatwave and having to water the garden twice daily.
ReplyDeleteGoodness it all looks so good Emma. I can't imagine waking to find horses in my yard, that is crazy! Glad they didn't do too much damage.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, that view from your garden, of the forested mountains...stunning!!! When can I come and have tea with you :)
Hope you are well and enjoyed your weekend. Have a wonderful week.
Emma, your garden looks absolutely wonderful! All that wonderful food. That is funny the horses did less damage.
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise to see those fellows chowing down of your lovely produce. Yikes! Your garden is looking beautiful! Sorry to hear about the heat. What is the average summer temps in your neck of the woods?
ReplyDeleteI would be surprised to see those in the gardens. Your gardens are looking good and very bountiful.
ReplyDeleteProper gardening and pest control is a necessity. It is often ignored until pests and their damage are discovered or it has got out of hand. Well there are measures you can take to help eradicate the problem. τερμιτες φαρμακο κυπρος
ReplyDeleteMost people get the most annoyed when they are eating outside and they feel like they are getting attacked by insects landing on their food. מדביר חולדות
