Ledleys road

We had a visit to the ledges road planting site.  The plants have grown so much we couldn't find the sign.  The area has a lot of rubbish lying around but the trees look healthy.  We won't plant here anymore because the area to dangerous to bring groups of children.

the big clean out September 2016

so the worm farm hadn't been emptied for a few years.  we were concerned that our worms were no longer living in a healthy environment so we asked the wonderful Ruth to come and help us.  We began by digging into the compact castings, Ruth was very impressed, great quality castings,thick and rich.  Good enough  to sell even, two bags sold already! There is atiny whit worm like creature living with our worms, however Ruth belives they are slater lavae. We now have fresh castings on all our planting beds and a rejouvinated worm farm.
