April 26
Hello APRIL!
Now that April is here and the clocks have changed, we can finally get into the garden after work. Whoop!
With longer days and lighter evenings, we can really start to prepare for a fabulous summer ahead.
Seedlings will take off quickly now, and there’s just so much to feel happy and excited about.
This month we’re introducing the Three Sisters planting method, which we’ll build on again in May. It’s a clever way of growing crops together – and a very effective use of space, however big or small your garden is.
I hope you love your box. I can’t wait to grow mine alongside you.
Happy Sowing

HOW TO SOW VIDEOS
We like to sow our seeds with you so we’ll wait until your boxes arrive before recording the videos and will aim to have them online by 19th April.
There are full sowing instructions in your box if you are eager to get started before then and there is, of course, our YouTube channel where you can find previous video’s too!
