Welcome to Tuesday 6 October 2026. 

So much to tell you about in this episode including the start of my autumn seed sowing (finally...), plus some chicken news, a crushed CD, and a mystery turd on the field...

I'm talking about how I've been sowing my hardy annuals this autumn including the new compost I'm using, the trays I prefer to use, and the sowing technique I've used this time - which is not my favourite one but I'll tell you why I've done it.

I had the pleasure of being interviewed on someone else's podcast for the first time a few weeks ago and the episode is now live. If you're interested in hearing me talk about the changes I've made to how I run the cut flower business this year, I've put some links below.

Here are the links to listen to me being a guest on Jenny Marks's Six Figure Flower Farming podcast:

Join me on my journey through a year of growing and selling cut flowers in England. I'm giving you the low-down on what it's really like, how I'm getting started, what you do and don't need, what I do when and why, the successes and failures, and just about everything in between. All in real time. With guest appearances from my chickens every now and then.
