Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I promise you, officer. These ARE my Christmas potatoes. Yes, they are called Charlotte. I know it looks bad! 🤣 010
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 23/08/2026My task yesterday and today was to build this high carrot bed. We have a carrot root fly problem at the allotments, and they always manage to find a way through mesh. I filled this from my compost heap! 290
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 19/08/2026So, last week we had our allotment sunflower competition. Lots of lovely entries and very worthy winners. Except me. My sunflowers refused to make an appearance until 7 days later! 😂 #sunflowers#allotment#summerflowers 020
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Nothing beats that overwhelming first nose full of comfrey tea! 🤢 It's so bad it must be good! 🤣 110
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 06/08/2026It's a tough year on the allotment with the drought. Having no water supply means a constant trek bringing it to the plot from home. It's all worth it though when the runner beans give you flowers so pretty they could be in a vase! This heirloom variety is very aptly called 'Sunset' 070
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Who is sowing seeds for later crops on their plot in July? I've just got carrots started. Sown beetroot, spring onions and started late peas (Douce Provence). More radishes to go in and dwarf French Beans as the voles have decimated my early ones. 220
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 10/10/2025A few weeks ago these appeared in the field by our house. Lovely chat with the farmer and permission to photograph them. Primarily I am a wedding photographer so this was something completely different. Although could still be likened to the usual all guest group shot! 😂 181
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Just thinking I should get home but me and Wilbur are enjoying the lovely mild weather here today 070
Jane @jane-b1.bsky.social · 08/10/2025Just joined Bluesky today and looking forward to sharing a few things going on in my world here in Somerset. I have an allotment with gorgeous views and a summerhouse for garden tools, tea and contemplation! 060
