The peas grew exceptionally fast in their first seed pots and quickly needed planting out. The hens immediately focussed on the new seedlings and starting pecking at them! Had to construct a very makeshift fence to keep them off!

veggie growing, chicken keeping and all things to do with our garden
2009 was certainly a good year for veg. We had fabulous crops of everything, even the sweetcorn provided us with a couple of tiny cobs! Best of all were the tomatoes and chilli peppers. I grew both indoors with a few extra tomato plants outside which continued to produce until late Autumn. First timers for 2009 were peas - absolutely gorgeous, certainly going to do them again. I did miss my leeks, but used the space for the peas and beans. Will have to squeeze them in somehow this year.
Happy viewing and happy growing!
