I got this plant from stirchley allotments when we visited with university. Someone had left huge clods of it for people to take. Seems to be doing well in the rockery whatever it is!! #bogplant #rockery #rockerygarden #rockgarden #gardening #microfarm #youngfarmers #supportlocal #local #homegrown #reaspringgardens #urbanfarming #stirchley #stirchley #stirchleyallotment #fineartdegree #bcu #margaretstreet (at New Frankley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCi4n4YpRZj/?igshid=imi79iibu833

American land cress. Growing out of my plant wall.

With the new polytunnel cover in place the micro climate and environment in quail coop is transformed. More like tropical rainforest than british garden! #quail #quails #quailcoop #polytunnel #greenhouseeffect #rainforest #tropical #humid #watercycle #respiration #microclimate #biome #localenvironment #improvement #urbanfarming #gardening #microfarm #youngfarmers #supportlocal #local #homegrown #reaspringgardens (at New Frankley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCgAvBmJgZV/?igshid=17nudwl09ztxs

So we had some bad news last week. A cat made a hole in the netting and killed two quails. We started looking immediately and earlier this week bought a male and four more females. Along with the weather I had no choice but to make improvements to their habitat. This is a before photo. #quail #quails #quailcoop #lostlivestock #cat #urbanfarming #gardening #microfarm #youngfarmers #supportlocal #local #homegrown #reaspringgardens #mistakes #sadnews #sadnews #newbirds #poultry #gamebirds https://www.instagram.com/p/CCgAAmKJ5jS/?igshid=1bsqpzursacun

I'm back after all that bad weather! Our polytunnel plastic arrived. I'll explain what's been going on later, I'll be honest it's been tough going... #updatecomingsoon #polytunnel #quailcoop #quails #cat #delivery #parcel #urbanfarming #gardening #microfarm #youngfarmers #supportlocal #local #homegrown #charlesmccarthy #reaspringgardens https://www.instagram.com/p/CCfrHP2pDng/?igshid=m7wsnlveb1xt
