Wriggling Snake Feb 2020 3:47pm, 15 Feb 2020 25,506 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I wait for the wild galic to come up, then thin it then....foxgloves are a good idea, I tend to save the seed and let some self-seed, just to make sure I have some. Broad Beans, Peas and onions out....., raised beds fed with last years compost, carrots and parsnips to go in next, followed by Kale and I might try some fancy squash. Alos time to sort out all the Strawberry runners I collected too...
