Barley Straw

Chris managed to get the barley straw baled, back home and stacked. He is now dodging showers and hoping to get a late cut of hay.This year the wasps are everywhere and spoiling the fruit if it is not picked fast enough. We have dug the potatoes and stored them in hessian sacks. It has been a very dry season. The purple pole beans are prolific and best of all they are stringless.The bush beans Cupidon bought from The Reel seed company also just keep producing I will definitely be saving some seed.
Today is willow weaving day, The sky is a fiery red as the sun is rising so I think we will be rushing into the barn at some point, we seem to have a pattern of wild rain on a Thursday.
