Evening sunlight down at the pumpkin patch

Crop rotations are the latest obsession, as we are counting the days till the green manures come down and the veggies go in. Phil's plans have been slowly crystalising and its all now feeling very real. This photo was taken yesterday. I love the gorgeous sunlit evenings at the field.

Spring Willows

Three days later Phil had pruned 1,500 willows. Some had started to bud early, but with such a mild winter I guess it's not surprising. They are now all trimmed and should be nice and bushy for later this year.

I tried a bit of wicker work with the clippings....I think I need to keep practicing!
