Jardin 2024
Started the year by re-structuring the rampart garden lower terrace
First job in the jardin was to clear the fallen trees and prepare the logs
Tried out our new ploughing machine
- a gift from Claude
Built a bridge across the stream from the trees that I cut down
Updated my equipment with a new chain saw, bushcutter and hedgecutter
Tercia set up a plant nursery in her studio.
The heavy rains resulted in a wonderful spring flower display and mists in the valley
May 11th started planting sunflowers, broad beans and squash. Ceci was unsure whether it was fun or not . Still snow on Ventoux
took the logs up to the store after salvaging them from the under growth
lovely new flower in rampart garden
a tree in the village was cut down end on 6th August. Very dramatic and rather sad
Late August and a good harvest of beet root, squashes, tomatoes, pattipans, pears and figs and found hops growing wild
Back in London in October 2024 and put up new fence panels
On return to Puymeras on 14th November found Rainbow Chard still growing in Jardin
Juan was back log splitting at Christmas
and also requested a tour of the Jardin https://youtu.be/PBkRzxx4vgE
