Summer is here and with the solstice on June 20th marking midsummer (the 'longest day' and 'shortest night' of the year), why not take a moment to pause, appreciate your garden and the beauty of nature in this new season. Then, it’s back to work as you take on some of the jobs for June!

Growing loose leaf lettuce to ‘cut and come again’ is a really quick and easy way to have a fresh, continual supply of salad leaves from spring to autumn (and even in winter if you grow it undercover!) and is great if you have limited growing space.
