Lorna and Kia

My two garden helpers left today. Lorna is from Belfast and was recommended to me by the Head Gardener of Mount Stewart in Northern Ireland, Neil Porteous, who I met at the Croome Walled Gardeners seminar last autumn. She’s been with me for 3 weeks and has left a lasting impression on the garden!!
Kia has been a student at Fosen Folkehøgskole this last year and has been here for a few days after the end of school. I predict both are going places! We had great fun and I’m now feeling more in control of the garden again! Thanks both for all your hard work and welcome back!

Lorna had joked to folk that “that guy has no sugar in the house” and “he bought some tomatoes to compensate” ;) Last impressions are best, so a parting gift of some organic chocolate!
