Planting a seed is synonymous with the new beginnings of January and February, the sacrificial element of Lent and the long-awaited arrival of Spring. And it’s not just symbolic – this is great time of year to begin sowing and growing if you’ve ever considered it. Right now in the UK we are sowing tomatoes and peppers, ‘chitting’ potatoes and late starters, like me, are just getting our garlic and broad beans in the ground. Growing a garden can be a rewarding pastime, as well as providing a bounty of sustainable food. Look for peat-free compost at your local garden centre or even better, pop a composter in your garden and make your own!

We have placed bike racks outside our door to the lower deck in an effort to encourage people to use bikes rather than cars.
