After yet another lengthy period away from my blog (some of it just because of winter... some of it because of sheer laziness) the Garrett Garden returns. With a promise to do a monthly update. Once a month, looking back at the previous month seems manageable. I've even put it in my calendar. I find … Continue reading The Garden Returns

Six On Saturday – June 18
I haven't done one of these for a while, and this will be a quick one. I'm attending an online Menopause festival today - learning lots and remembering that my garden is the perfect place to go and take a breath when the realities of being a perimenopausal woman start to get me down. Six … Continue reading Six On Saturday – June 18
April 2022
I spent the first half of April out of the country and so I had decided not to plant any seeds before I went away. The seed planting started in earnest on our return and as I write this in May I'm starting to see the first of my seedlings emerge. But more of that … Continue reading April 2022

I just wanted to come back and do a catch up post before Spring starts in earnest. I just fell out of the habit of blogging last year - the garden kept me so busy and with normal life resuming slowly month by month I felt my time was well spent growing and tending rather … Continue reading MIA

It's been a few weeks since I took part in Six on Saturday, I've been busy in the garden during the week (I work from home so I get to take my breaks out there) but I keep remembering my blog post on Sunday mornings - doh! Things have moved on a lot in the … Continue reading Six On Saturday, June 26th

I've been taking part in Six On Saturday for about 6 weeks now and I love being part of this little gardening community all over the world! Thanks to our host The Propagator for the inspiration and encouragement. One - … Continue reading Six On Saturday, May 29th 2021
Six On Saturday – 22nd May 2021
Six on Saturday - a bit late today as I spent the morning in the garden and then a couple of hours watching Binfield FC in The FA Vase - sadly they didn't win but it was a good game and it was kind of surreal for me listening to the commentators talking about the … Continue reading Six On Saturday – 22nd May 2021
Six On Saturday, 15th May 2021
Here we are in the middle of May and my Facebook memories are mocking me with images of glorious sunny days this time last year. It's been very showery here in Liverpool this week, but thankfully it seems like the risk of frost has finally passed. It's cold overnight but nowhere near freezing. I ordered … Continue reading Six On Saturday, 15th May 2021

#SixOnSaturday Back again with a Six on Saturday post. It's been a very wet week, with not much I could do in the garden. My photos are from the last week when I've been able to get out and dodge the rain clouds. My lunch breaks have been snatched minutes in between rain showers all … Continue reading Six On Saturday, 8th May 2021
Six On Saturday
This is my first time taking part in Six on Saturday. It's a kind of gardening round robin that I found on a great blog called The Propagator. The general idea is to do a round up of six things in your garden. Not sure I'll remember to do it every week but I'm going … Continue reading Six On Saturday
