THE WEST COUNTRY OR GIVE AS A FOODIE GIFT JUST A YEAR£15 PROTECTING BRASSICAS FROM PIGEONS
You may like cabbages and kale but pigeons do too, so it’s a good idea to protect your crops by making a framework of bamboo canes, popping a jam jar over the top of the upright ones and covering them with plastic netting. Make sure this is held down with stones, bricks or wood on the ground, so the pigeons can’t sneak in underneath!

Digging compost into vegetable beds
Any area where you want to grow root vegetables, like carrots, parsnips and potatoes, will be improved with a 5 – 8cm layer of well-rotted compost being spread over it. Push the fork into it, lift and twist, so that it is partly worked into the soil – do this over the whole area. The worms will drag the rest down for you and the soil will hold onto water for longer.
