      Thank you! Isn’t it so, that feel of soil and the thought those tiny seeds hold such nourishing abundance within them. Happy Spring!

    Niceeeeee.... Love the piece of history thrown in whilst in the taxi:). One day I will live fully in France because I love it too much. Her place is sooo gorgeous. Love this starting video. I didn't spot any wine haha... Will she allow you to do a house tour? Another awesome video:)

      Well I look forward to you moving here. Good thing there wasn’t any wine. I was wobbly enough riding that bike home one-handed while filming with the other 😂 Good idea for the house tour. I may just do that!

      Basil, tomatoes, jalapeños, eggplants, leeks, lettuce. Waiting to sow peas, squash, cucumbers and larger plants until after our last frost in mid-April.

    I like that you talk about planting by the moon as I get a magazine here in Australia called Better Homes & Gardens. Every month I plant and use Seaweed Solution by the chart and my plants love it.Thank you ladies

      Seaweed by the moon chart, I’ll have to remember that!

      @@VelvetandToads Seaweed Solution is a liquid fertiliser you add to a watering can which my Grandfather used often. I use it by the chart about every 2 weeks....my Boston ferns, Maidenhair Ferns, Aloe Vera pots, large Birds Nest Fern, Bromeliads & Peace Lily’s love it.
