We have now settled back to our regular maintenance jobs.
These include pruning our hedgerows, coppicing the hazel area, cutting back the willow and gently pruning the fruit bushes.
There are still a few more jobs, including raised bed maintenance, new gates, new posts and fruit tree pruning to be done before mid-february, when the transplanting season begins. Not long till Spring!

The new year brings more orders. The 'sales' stock is now rather depleted.The latest orders have now led to rather large bare patches across the site. The customer orders are put immediately into bags before their transplantation to holding beds, awaiting customer collection.
The site looks tidy, but devoid of saplings.
One last job; preparing a selection of plants for our stand at Brighton's 'Seedy Sunday' fair in February.
