Spring In the Polytunnel

Is very Buzy

Warm temperatures are here as well as the lingering frost and the tunnel is filling up quickly

We have been busy for the last couple of months growing our seedlings indoors and transferring them to the tunnel in prep for various projects.

Growing plants for our first Client, creating stunning Summer Hanging Baskets for our local pub!

Yellow trailing petunias for hanging baskets, sown indoors in February and transferred to the tunnel in March
