After months carefully harvesting the aloe vera pups and replanting them, nurturing the little baby offshoots and new healthy re-potted leaves, it was time to move them from the patio at home to the greenhouses at the farm. It’s December, it’s cold, and they’ll be perfectly happy out of the cold and rain.

We’re planting cornflower seeds in seed trays, and preparing the second and third rows of flower beds in the farm grove. We’ve got an ad campaign in Italy to test, and have to find time to see what’s going on in the vegetable garden at home. It’s been rather busy, and we’ve had a couple of lovely orders too!
