Our DREAMY veg bed crew for the past month 🌱🌞💞

Shoutout to our amazing Summer Fellows who have all toiled in the hot sadeh 

We have been up to all sorts: 
- pinched out and tied up tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, qishium and tomatillos
- transplanted squash plants into our manure heap
- drilled an old hose into a drip line for irrigation 
- planted up the herb garden
- made up planters for perennial ornamental climbers chosen to provide shade in our polytunnel 
- transplanted a bed of perennial Sutherland Kale 
- and most importantly; WATERED 💦

Our Fellows contributions mean we are well on our way to bumper crops for use at Sadeh and for donation to the Food Bank

“This is the blessing for the first garden tomato:
Those green boxes of tasteless acid the store
sells in January, those red things with the savor
of wet chalk, they mock your fragrant name.
How fat and sweet you are weighing down my palm,
warm as the flank of a cow in the sun.
You are the savor of summer in a thin red skin.“ Marge Piercy 

For just £5 you could have this experience if you buy one of these!
We will be celebrating shavuot with @judaismunboun We will be celebrating shavuot with @judaismunbound Shel and Felix will be chatting about the campaign Basic Income For Famers (@bi4farmers) and comparing it with the ancient practice of Bikkurim (offering first fruits)! (Link in bio)
