A Haircut for Willow 💇‍♀️

April 18, 2024 Isabella Falsetti

By Angela Hoy

The weather wasn’t quite as bad as we feared, but still quite wet!  

We gave the Contorted Willow its annual haircut — any ideas on what to use it for? 

We’ve started to tidy the accessible beds in preparation for them to be topped up with fresh soil. 

The vertical garden pockets were weeded, and half emptied ready for some fresh soil, and the herb beds were tidied — and our cherry tree is in full bloom!

Some more kale and mache were harvested as well.
