There are seeds to sow, strawberries to plant (not in overhead gutters with drips installed..although that's a great idea), compost to be moved, weeds to be pulled..a little task for all.

We may also oil our new shed. It is amazing what we can get done in a couple of hours when everybody pitches in. Bring your favourite garden tool and raincoat. We might be in the thick of winter, but there are still things you can do in your own garden or start raising seedlings under glass for August plantings, such as cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli.
