Spring is almost here! After what has been a difficult year for us all, isn’t it just lovely to see the spring bulbs emerging from their winter slumber as well as brighter, sunnier days?!! With lockdown easing (hopefully), we can all look forward to more positive times ahead. Here at Cilshafe Garden Design, incorporating Cilshafe Herbs, we are busy planting our seedlings ready for the busy spring/summer season. Currently we have some early plants available, including several mints, Pennyroyal, Celery Leaf, Woad and my favourite, Cowslips! We also have some early Beetroot peeping through the soil! Take a look at our website at https://cilshafegardendesign.co.uk/ or check out our eBay store; cilshafe_eco_herbs_2012. As promised, once our website is fully up and running, we will be featuring recipes using our available herbs, including the odd cheeky gin recipe! Please bear with us while we put the finishing touches on our website, and do get out in the garden while the sun shines! It is so good for our physical and mental health! We all hope that the latter part of 2021 will be a much more happy and positive time for us all. If you have any questions or suggestions please contact us via the website https://cilshafegardendesign.co.uk/ or drop us an email at cilshafegardendesign@btopenworld.com.
