I have been on the allotment today the frost has lifted and the ground was soft enough to dig some parsnips ,these are tasty after frost, baked in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and a some honey. The leeks are coming on fine and I hope to make some soup in the near future.
Watch this space for a super recipe.
I am of to the nearby woods this afternoon to gather seed from various trees to add to the seed bank for planting in the spring.
Talking of planting now is the time to plant onion seeds. Choose a good quality seed compost just cover the seeds allow 14 to 21 days to germinate at 19-21 centigrade when big enough to handle -transplant into 3" pots.
More info later on what to do next
