Just done the extreme sport aka cutting the pyrocanthus hedge. This involves ladders, sharp needles and a casual disregard for the potential damage a motorised hedge trimmer can acheive. Also why is that one job in the garden always, always becomes at least 3 more?
Talking of gradens, we have a regular ‘new’ face at the market talking all things plants @Crafty Plants, @The Sparrows Urban Market Garden on the intricacies of soil ph & ‘growing your own’ plus @Milliebuds our resident florist and if admiring flowers rather than nurturing them is more your ‘cup of tea’ – admire away at the bouquets and displays @Mrytle can make from dried flowers
As ever we have an amazing line-up of artisan traders , many regulars but always some new faces, keen to see what the fuss is about with Heaton Moor Producers Market!
