The Gooden Life Keith Gooden

Keith & Freya are back on the allotment getting their potatoes in, trying to brighten up the conditions and battle against a really cold spring in the UK. There's a great tip from Freya about how you can have a cold frame without paying out for glass. We also want to know if there'll be strawberries in time for Wimbledon!

Keith & Freya are back on their allotment with a slow, wet start to spring but still managing to get the Shallots in, the strawberry plants we grew on are planted and we battle with Rooks and Pigeons on the brassica beds....... Grow along with us here every couple of weeks or so!

Keith & Freya brave the snow covered ground this week as they do those little jobs to get things ready for Spring! 

They're banned from the allotment because the ground is water logged after the wettest February  in 112 years in the UK! So it's out with the peas and beans as well as the sweet peas, and time to start planting this year's crops!

There's some top tips too about your spuds!  

Keith & Freya are at Marshfield's annual potato day.....  But it's not just spuds , we're also buying seeds and a few Dahlias too!

This week find out about the new seed potato which " they say" is a lower calorie cropper , how climate change is affecting our plots and gardens, and which spuds goin first and what is "chitting".
