And suddenly, in photos like these, I can catch a small glimpse of the boy our baby is growing into.

Imagine a whole street filled with sunflowers? Well this is what I've been thinking about for Bee Awareness Month. I've been in the throes of making wee packets of giant Russian sunflower seeds for all my neighbourhood from last year's flower heads. Hopefully this summer, sunflowers, and bees will abound all the way down the street.

Yesterday, we took a walk under the trees. The air was fresh from the snow melting on the hills above us, the light crisp, the sky blue.

Spring basket harvest - the first broad beans, fresh mint, cavolo nero, kale, coriander, rocket, calendula, spring eggs and celery.

Some podcasts just hit you, and this one was that for me. I listened and I rewound it and I listened again. I wrote these quotes down. There were many more besides, and I encourage you to listen. Let me know if you do.

I'm simply delighted to have become a Trustee of For the Love of Bees Charitable Trust this past week.

What a glorious first day of Spring here! Full wishes of this rising spring energy to you all.

A sweet moment between two brothers.

Three years ago,@gesineramm and I dug out all the horrible agapanthus that were completely enveloping this bank. It was a beastly job, but boy was it worth it. We replanted natives and put lots of rocks under some lizard friendly plants like broom and mulenbeckia as this bank gets incredible summer sun. Last summer I saw lizards enjoying themselves here just as we planned. I've planted two fruit trees in the bank too, espalliered with a clear space around them for wildflower guilds. Some people don't like mixing it up, but I think it's absolutely beautiful.

A delicious basket of organic broccoli shoots that I've harvested for dinner tonight.
