The recovery of a garden from neglect as I looked after my wife, Glen, 'Pippy', in her terminal illness. The garden was her refuge and her love. As she was mine.

A Little Unfinished Business
Tuesday, 30 June 2020
Home Produce.
This weekend was very wet and put me down in the dumps, not wanting to do anything.
So I didn't.
Through I did start some strawberry wine, with Genie's help. I had just enough strawbs for a gallon, and just enough enthusiasm to take photos for a video (watch this space).
Genie and I went for a walk to check out our local allotments. They put us to shame. I console myself that our garden is convalescing, and not up to full production yet, though I know this is a little conceit.
The shed still looks at me dolefully. It's no good having big shed fantasies if I don't do something about it - I must have a proper go at estimating cost and finalising plans.
This evening (Tuesday), tackled last year's frozen blackcurrants, and made about 8 lbs. Again, video to follow.
