Signs of life after the big freeze.

William Wordsworth, the Two-Part Ballad: "I began / My story early, feeling, as I fear, / The weakness of a human love for days / Disowned by memory, ere the birth of spring / Planting my snowdrops among winter snows"

Is it spring yet? It's time to order seeds anyway.
I'm trying out The Real Seed Company http://www.realseeds.co.uk/

Winter's here and the snow is knee high outside but thanks to our old woodburning stove we're nice and toasty inside.

Here's wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
Thanks to all our friends, family and guests for helping us make our first year at La Jonchere a most excellent adventure...
Plans for 2010 - more veggies, plant some apple trees, chickens...!
