We’re not going to be in the garden much today what with the terrible weather (it’s tipping it down in south London at the moment) apart from just a few minutes ago when we brought the kitchen waste down the compost heap that is looking well healthy (if compost can look healthy that is).

The old bathroom mat that was keeping the warmth in has now decomposed and was full of brandling worms last time we saw it in one piece. Later this year we’re going to have a go at making another open type compost heap as they really are better than the darlek ones and you don’t graze your hand everytime you go to turn it! #vivalacompost

By the way we’re always on the look out for news of any good gardening events in our neck of the woods so if you hear of any seed swaps or potato days do give us a shout. Talking of which we’ve found a great list here on Garden Organic of forthcoming Seed Swaps. Only one in Bromley at the moment but we’re sure they’ll be more added soon. Have a look here. #gardenorganic #seedswaps #freeseeds
