Grow Your Own in February
There’s plenty of exciting vegetable related activities for February, when it’s time to stop planning and get growing. Sowing can be done both in and outdoors provided the soil’s not too hard or wet. Underglass or on a windowsill you can get broadbeans, leeks, tomatoes, onions and cabbage started. If you bring your compost indoors first to warm up a bit your seedlings will get off to a better start. And outdoors, parsnips and beetroot can be sown. It’s also a good time to get last year’s labels cleaned up. After much experimenting I’ve found that the most effective way of cleaning them is a Brillo pad, especially if you’ve got the more expensive smooth labels they clean up a treat. If you’ve got autumn raspberry canes now’s the time to cut them all down to ground level as, unlike spring varieties, these raspberries will fruit on new growth. New year – new project – here’s something different to try out for 2016. Over Christmas I heard a first hand account from a gardener who’s installed a hugelkultur bed on her plot. It’s a system of growing which has been practised in Germany and Eastern Europe for hundreds of years, whereby a raised garden bed is created by covering a mound of rotting wood with top soil. This creates a bed loaded with organic matter, nutrients and air pockets, recreating the growing conditions of the forest floor. A mound is created either directly on the soil or in a shallow trench by piling up logs, branches, compost and soil, covered with top soil to a height of between 2 and 6 feet, and a width of 4 – 5 feet. The higher the bed the more moisture it will retain, requiring less watering. You will have created a nutrient rich bed with a much greater surface area than the soil it covers, with excellent water retention and created a sheltered side which also, once created, is much more easily worked as it won’t be compacted due to being walked upon and sowing and harvesting can be carried out at waist height. I’m not sure if I’ll start off with a 6 foot hugel but getting one established should keep me busy… It’s cheaper than developing a taste for shopping anyway…!

Wakefield Health Walks:
The North Wakefield Group meet on Tuesdays at New Southgate Surgery at Newton Bar. We meet at 9.15 for a 9.30 start. The walks are approximately 4 miles long and are aimed at fitter walkers. We walk locally around the Wakefield area and car-share to the start of the walk. You do not need a car in order to join our walks but, if you do have a car, we would be grateful if you could offer lifts to non-car walkers .Suitable footwear is necessary as sometimes it can be muddy and uneven ground. If you are interested please contact Pauline Calvert on 07907827435 or paulinecalvert@me.com or just turn up on the day.
OSSETT STROKE CLUB (Affiliated to the Stroke Organisation)
Are you a stroke survivor? Do you live in the Ossett/Horbury area? If so why not join our Stroke Club and meet other stroke survivors. We have activities, occasional guest speakers, go out for pub lunches or other outings or just sit and natter. If you need your carer to come with you they would be welcome also. We meet at Ossett Community Centre every other Monday from 10.30am-2.30 pm
For further info. please contact the leader Mrs Ann Grace on 01924-242399
NHS RETIREMENT FELLOWSHIP WAKEFIELD GROUP
We meet the first Tuesday of the month at 1.45pm for approximately two hours at the Salvation Army Centre, Vicarage Street, Wakefield. We are open to all retired health and social care staff and their partners and the first couple of meetings would be free to ensure that there is something you would like to be involved in. We currently have no funding from the local Health Authorities as other groups in the area do so after that the cost is currently £30 per annum but included in that is our annual Christmas lunch at a local restaurant. We have quizzes, bingo, strawberry teas etc and occasional speakers when cost allows. We also organise an annual day trip and lunches out for member’s birthdays and are keen to start a walking group for short walks ideally ending with a pub lunch about once a month. For more details please contact Ros Bartle at ros.bartle@hotmail.co.uk or telephone 01924 275817. Please come and give us a try.
