Mae'r Haf yn Dod/Summer on the Way
As some tricky winds end an otherwise perfect Spring a brief summary of what we've been up to. Firstly irrigating a lot as our borehole saved the days,repeatedly. Secondly struggling to keep up as rapidly advancing crops met large customer numbers, we can't be everywhere at once.
The traditional hungry gap was small this year,despite supply problems from Mediterranean countries. We worked hard dragging mesh sheets and fleeces on and off to push crops along and some lovely Fennel,Spring Onions,Tenderstem,Basil and various greens have been our reward.
West Wales, soon to host the National Eisteddfod at Llantood, has seemed a very peaceful place compared to events in the wider world.Israeli influence over the UK Gov has become increasingly apparent as has an active refusal to regulate US tec platforms.(quite easy to make them liable as publishers,if you actually want to). Apprehension as well as hope for the new Welsh Gov seems a common sentiment.
We will try to get a farm walk fitted in while we have light nights,and some shiny crops. We seen high bird and bat numbers reflective we hope of decent insect populations,as well as a drier Spring.
