    Lovely Emma, I love watching you working on your plot… so inspirational! I am 83 years old and have to say that there is always something new for me to learn even though I’ve been gardening all my life. Love seeing Einstein interacting with you.
    If ever you are moved to start a compost heap I would be truly happy because I know how much you’d love it 👍 I get almost as excited about the compost as I do the vegetables 😂
    Thank you for all your hard work in making the videos!

    My vote for names are Lottie (short for allotment) for the girl and Don (short for London) for the boy as you have a London allotment plot. 😊 x

    With your beds that are falling over, use 3 sticks on each board - 2 on the inside and 1 on the outside. That should help

    Glorious Autumn light. Last "job" of the day before you loose that light, put down the trowel, turn off the camara and pour a glass of beer?? wine?? or G+T?? and jest walk around your own piece of heaven, looking at it´s very, very best. PS. Your "hard won" pumpkins will taste all the better for it........B

    Hello Emma, I'm here relaxing after a full day running errands. May I suggest to spray paint or other paint to put on your scissors so you don't have the ribbon from getting in the way or falling off. just a suggestion. have a great day.

    Pumpkin could be winter sweetheart variety, if the inside is more of a dark mustard colour and flaky flesh. I dehydrated and ground it…. I use it as thickening powder for soup and gravy.

    I think it might be a Marina di Chioggia they get more bumpy if they get bigger. I think it’s best to harvest when the stem starts to dry out if you’re trying to save it at all? I guess if you’re trying to cook it right away it might be OK, but I don’t know if I’d be as flavorful. I always struggle with the wind harvest things.
