Who knew this project would be such a challenge this year? The Nature Club kids planted their potatoes the week before Lock Down. The 6 tubs of potatoes and 3 bottles of ‘underground’ potatoes were then transported to my back garden. I am now 80 miles away caring for my dad and have left the potatoes with my husband who admits to not being a gardener. Thankfully only watering and photographs have been required so far. The good news is that the Drongan Nature Club potatoes are flourishing. Hopefully we’ll get a better crop this year.
Why not get organised and sign up for 30 Days Wild, a programme of activities for every day in June. Get outside (safely distanced of course), get wild and have fun. Plus it’s absolutely free, though you can make a donation to The Wildlife Trust should you wish to. Get online, copy the link into your browser and order your downloadable activity pack.
Megan and Ruby, who attend the after-school Nature Club, have created new bugs as part of the Forestry England Weekly Challenge. I wouldn’t fancy finding either bug in my bed!
