A Hocking Hill's Garden: Wonderful Springtime
http://lonadawn7.blogspot.com/2015/05/wonderful-springtime.html
A Rainbow of Irises. Saturday, May 16, 2015. It has been so long since my last posting. I hope everyone has been enjoying their spring and that your flower gardens are growing by leaps and bounds. I think so many of my flowers in the flowerbeds are into the ‘third year and leaping’. Some of the beds I am afraid are beginning to look like small jungles. Tulips have come and gone. 8221;China Towne”. And so have the crocus. The primroses were so pretty and full this year. I have all my annuals collected tha...

STERTE GARDEN PROJECT – Page 2 – "Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it." Chinese Proverb
https://stertegardenproject.org/page/2
Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. It’s been an interesting few days. Naughty kids, romance, smiles, sunshine, hard work, and pledges. After weeding the raised bed paving last week, I was not amused to find this. Kids had thrown clumps of earth around and I had to sweep it all up. Hardly a catastrophe but irritating. I found out who had… Read More VARIETY. May 8, 2016. May 8, 2016. May 5, 2016. Weeds, play area, books & stuff. May 1, 2016. Unfortuna...

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 2,800 times in 2015. If it were a cable car, it would take about 47 trips to carry that many people.

And more – STERTE GARDEN PROJECT
https://stertegardenproject.org/2016/06/21/and-more
Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. There are a couple of things I should have put in yesterday’s post but it was getting late. Because we get a lot more people sitting out by the beach huts now, we need more seating. Thanks to B and Q’s Diamond Club, I picked up a picnic table at a very good price. It isn’t the kind of wood that will last forever but, if it lasts more than two summers it will be worth it. We even managed to put it together! Then one...

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. The photos I promised yesterday. Can anyone tell me what’s eating my greens? Top left is purple sprouting broccoli. Top right is the cabbage and sprout patch. Bottom the Russian Kale. Do caterpillars eat tiny holes in leaves? I though the would have eaten the whole leaf. Now the onions that the kids planted – maybe not deep enough? The photo doesn’t seem to appear on the post so I’ll try again! September 4, 2016.

STERTE SUMMER FUN DAY – STERTE GARDEN PROJECT
https://stertegardenproject.org/2016/09/11/sterte-summer-fun-day
Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. STERTE SUMMER FUN DAY. A lot of work went into the Summer Fun Day which took place on 27th August. We invested in a Lottery Licence so that we could hold raffles and sell tickets to friends and relatives before the day. We sold 1200 tickets at 20p each. 30 prizes were donated by friends, shops and organisations. Councillor Andy Hadley drew the numbers. It was an amazing success. The star of the show was the Poole F...

Summer at last – STERTE GARDEN PROJECT
https://stertegardenproject.org/2016/05/30/summer-at-last
Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. First, the planned play area. Events are moving on apace. We’ve now sent off letters to six playground designers and suppliers asking them to tender for all or some of the work. They have to submit by 21st June. Also, Asda has told us to apply for their Community funding, as has Spectrum Housing Association. I/we seem to be filling out an awful lot of application forms (or begging letters : ) ). We’ve each ha...

Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. I haven’t posted for – it must be three weeks! A lot has been happening but most of it keeps us outside rather than at the laptop. More news after that. In the garden, Suzie and her team have finished building the trellis on the pergola and some of the plants are in, like the clematis and a jasmine. We have virginia creeper and wisteria too. Nok has one raised bed that she cares for and it is packed with strawberri...

February 2016 – STERTE GARDEN PROJECT
https://stertegardenproject.org/2016/02
Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it. Chinese Proverb. TIME TO GET BACK OUT THERE! It’s been a long couple of months in which people could be forgiven for thinking nothing much has happened in the garden project. Like ducks, we may look as though floating around but, under the surface, we are paddling furiously. After the successful Christmas event, we’ve been battered and whooshed by storms on an almost… Read More TIME TO GET BACK OUT THERE! February 17, 2016.
