29th Dec 2020:
During the festive season the weather has been so amazing that I’ve not been able to resist the odd hour here and there planting trees. Having gained some ‘confidence’ on the smaller shrubs, I’ve moved up some of the larger varieties - hazel and oak. Making use of the biodegradable mulch mats and pegs.
Our boys have ventured out a couple of times to lend a hand. Despite the sunshine they’ve found it a tad chilly and wandered back in to the warmth of the fire. A few friends joined us planting before Christmas. Wonderful to have some company, and somehow puts the whole project into perspective to spend time with other people in amongst the trees.
