Rhubarb Harvest / Snippets of Spring

Posted on the 03 April 2014 by Chrryblossomtat2
It has begun my friends - harvesting from the allotment has taken off already. The rhubarb wasn't forced this year or we would have been enjoying it earlier but the time has arrived and it was worth the wait. I have a couple of recipes I would like to try, fingers crossed this time I actually get further than getting the ingredients out and then having to dump them!

At the two half plots there are many signs of new life and tasty produce to come, it gives one the tingles :)
The joys of Spring awakenings - 'growourown.blogspot.com' ~ an allotment blogLeft : Autumn Raspberries coming through and the Blackthorn hedge taking root and sprouting leavesMiddle : Just one of those amazing little 6 headed Daffodils I have been mentioningRight : Beautiful fat buds on the Cherry tree, it's covered in them and the Garlic growing strong******Naturally we also have opened up the Gault seedling nursery and even after the incident with the mini greenhouse, our spirits are up and pretty much everything is doing well. They're all exciting to me so even if you log off now in boredom of my giddiness, I am going to show you  more seedling photos now.....well, loads of soil and maybe a few specks of green, hehe.
