Hello,
We have not been very good about getting the Lyncott blog started - despite the fact that Daniel went on a land management course recently and can now talk with some authority (although no practical experience) about topping and harrowing. I was particularly impressed when he told me that the unwanted grass we have growing in our flower beds is Rye Grass.
The search for a small (4 or 5 acre) but suitable piece of land (i.e. levelish; with good road access; not too far away from Yarnscombe; and, if we are very lucky, a water source) goes on and we think it will take some time.
In the meantime we are weeding and buying lots of bedraggled but, we believe, saveable plants from the reduced shelf at RHS Rosemoor to fill in the huge blank canvas that is our flower beds.
Anyway, I wanted to report that I have just picked lots and lots of lovely yummy raspberries and the first of our Kohl Rabi.
I am about to serve some of the Kohl Rabi to our toddler, Josh, with some accompanying sweetcorn to tempt him to try it. Let's see what he makes of it.
