Wishing you all the best of everything for this coming gardening year. Not long now

Our neighbours the estate shepherdess has been increasing the number of dogs she has. She now has 3. Her partner who gets roped into help with gathering also needs dogs so he has 2. Five of the friendliest dogs you could meet.  The last one to arrive is a puppy 12 weeks old. She’s a little star and very chilled for a puppy. Shortly after getting the puppy they started to get suspicious that one of the other grown up girls they got in November is putting on weight and slowing down and eating more. We saw her this morning, first time for a few weeks. It’s so very obvious. So our neighbours are doing a Veggie    .

Because of my dark sense of humour. I think this is hilarious that they buy a puppy when they’re about to be over run with puppies     . 

I will keep you all post on, when and how many     . Hopefully with some photos. 

I have a real soft spot for mum to be. She has wall eye . Like our beautiful old boy Seven. Who I  still miss very much.

What seeds have you saved today? 
Don't forget the G&G Seed swap later this year.

A thread to record what you've spent on gardening and the value of the crops you've grown in 2025. 
There are no rules, do it in anyway that works for you. 
Its not a competition, just a way to get an idea of how much you spend on seeds, compost, plants, sundries and structures compared to the value of the food or other crops that your garden gives you in return. 
Feel free to share the ways in which you are measuring the costs and benefits. All the more ideas the better. 
I suggest we post our Balance Sheet at the end of each month to keep an eye on it!
