first dig of the year

On tuesday i managed to get my first dig of the year in, did about 2 hours in the cold, soil a but sticky and still with some ice crystals on top from the frost! But i removed the few beetroot that were left in the ground, and the spinach beet all into the bean trench.
I then dug over the area which had had the green manure mustard seed in. The strip in the middle of the photo is the strawberry plants which needs a bit of weeding at some point.

pre xmas photos

These photos were taken about 3 to 4 weeks ago, before the hard frosts and snow we have today, the green manure has died down a bit since and needs to be dug in some time. Otherwise it is a bit of tidying up that needs to be done when i get the chance and the weather improves.
