How alien are these chitted potatoes? After 3 weeks on our priest’s kitchen window ledge they have been blessed enough and are ready to plant 😃 I’ve never grown potatoes before so I’m looking forward to the harvest. I love potatoes!!! 🥔😍🥔

The potatoes have been planted. Woo! I had no part in the digging bit. That’s all down to my gardening buddy Keith. He does all the heavy lifting. I just fly in like a potato fairy at the end and pop the tatties in the ground.😊

Yesterday was the day I sowed tomato seeds in the church garden. It’s great to be back volunteering with kind souls. I’m so elated! Although it was chilly and windy (have you ever tried sowing tomato seeds in the wind? 😜) I really enjoyed it. Yay! 🍅 Roll on sunshine please. ☀️
