The time has come to clear the poly tunnel ready for some winter planting. The children worked hard collecting tomatoes and cucumbers, we had a bumper crop. The fruits were delicious.
The pots were sorted out and stored in boxes and the raised beds were turned over. We have a large amount of leaf mulch which is decomposing nicely ready to add to the beds in Spring.
Meanwhile the children worked on their dens and animal homes, even making obstacle courses so that any visiting foxes could have some exercise.
