Spring has sprung at last - this week has seen the most beautiful sunny spring days with warm sunshine, but cool and clear evenings and frosty and sometimes foogy nights. We have managed to put our yurts back on the field and have been busily populating them with all their furniture and soft furnishings ready for our first guests at Easter. We still have had some lovely guests staying in our shepherds hut and they have the benefit of having the place to themselves before our yurt guests start arriving. Its such a gorgeous time of year with blossom on all the apple trees, primroses in the hedgrows and bluebells starting to shoot up. The wild garlic is also rife in all the hedgerows, it is such a useful plant and the leaves and roots can be used in all sorts of wonderful dishes. The taste is not as strong as conventional garlic but you can be sure its totally organic and a real spring treat.
