Looking forward to seeing this finished...but I must be patient!
There are so many things demanding attention!!
Broad beans were belatedly planted out yesterday. The first sowing didn't grow, and the second took its time. All the potting on was finished by today...tomatoes, small sweet peppers and sunflowers. The leeks didn't germinate so I bought some seedlings..and they went in today, and covered in white fleece. The garlic has developed rust, unfortunately...and this type also gets onto leeks. The crop will be fine, but the tops can't be used to plait and hang the bulbs up to store.
Today the wind was still strong and gusty and we went on a walk looking at potential foraging...the apples pears and cherries are looking hopeful!!
And in the Meadow half of our front lawn we have orchids!!

Everything is coming along nicely and you look to be enjoying your walk.
Half of my veg have either not germinated, or if they did - rather half heartedly. Same for a fair bit of the ornamentals (sweet peas utterly dreadful).
However orchids in the lawn - glorious!
You are always so busy, and then have a nice walk...which is through beautiful areas. Thanks for taking some photos!
The greenhouse is looking lovely! Better yet when all the seedlings are planted out.
It looks as though everything is coming on nicely. I am surprised at how much foraging you have.
You probably have an easier time growing vegetables in your climate than we do in ours. Makes me long to live again in a temperate climate, but when your snow flies I'm grateful to be here!

Apples and Pears will be good to can and bottle up for Autumn/winter. I can see you making some yummy desserts
We got more rain, and a cool day this time in June is incredibly rare here. So, I had lots of weeds poking their heads up for decapitation.
