Yesterday our volunteers started work on a third plot at TARAGGAN Educational Gardens & Nursery. John showed Gethin, Rees, Sam and Morgan how to plant leeks, broccoli, and calabrese, which is another type of Broccoli. Our volunteers helped to cultivate the land using a hoe to break up the soil before sowing the seeds. The broccoli should be ready to harvest 55-85 days after seeding, and the leeks 120-150 days.

Thanks to Paula and Sarah for popping by to say hi and for having a go at weeding – it was lovely to see you. If you would like to volunteer with us we are at TARAGGAN Educational Gardens every Tuesday morning from 10.30 until 12.30.
