Early Spring 2024

It’s been a very wet autumn and winter. February saw double the normal rainfall and March has had more than the full monthly average rainfall in the first two weeks. We have repaired the shed windows and the greenhouse to keep the water out however the polytunnel was wrecked by the wind. We are now working out what we can make from it. We have also erected a tool store and Richard has kindly built some shelves in the shed. Thank you Richard.

We had a bumper crop of Parsnips and made Parsnip soup for the Sussex Green Hub volunteers . They said it was very tasty so we are putting the recipe on our website. We have also picked brussel sprouts, purple sprouting broccoli and rhubarb. We have had some Newts back in the pond and plants are beginning to grow.

At the Unitarian Church we are still pulling out brambles and maintaining the paths and pond. There is frogspawn. We are hoping for frogs.
