Hardly the green shoots of recovery, but a cheering sight just the same!
After some time of being neglected I was pleased to discover last week that the greenhouse has all the time been living up to its name, unnoticed. These are the remains of the self-sown spinach after rest was picked and cooked last week. That produced 8 portions to go with our home cooking - and what you can see will provide at least another 2. Then the greenhouse will be cleaned, the beds cleared out and replaced with a mix of fresh ericaceous compost mixed with richer material from our own compost bin - ready for tomatoes once the seedlings have grown. This years spinach and chard will be going straight into the garden in a muntjac-proof enclosure - and a second patch of garden is being fettled up ready for the seed potatoes we bought just before lockdown. I know not everyone has the space to grown vegetables, but if you can, you'll find it good, healthy exercise and very satisfying.

Life for a leafletting LibDem before Corona
In the days before the Corona Virus lockdown no area of Eden was safe from the prospect of a LibDem leaflet or survey. So here to remind ourselves of the normal life of a Party interested in the views of local people is the last report made for the Eden area before tumbleweed started rolling along the High St.
