Expanding horizons...

We have just taken over an additional plot that runs alongside our existing patch and braved the freezing conditions to measure out where the new beds will be dug.

I then made a start on the trenches where our potatoes will be planted in March.

There are nine trenches : Four will have Desiree planted, three will have Cara and two will have International Kidney (otherwise know as Jersey Royals).

The raised soil either side of the trenches will be used for earthing up.
