Nick and Matt did a wonderful job on rebuilding the brassica cage and with a bit of sewing the netting should be back in place soon.
It did a wonderful job last year of keeping flying vermin off our crops but there is a noticable reduction where the netting was missing. It is going to be used for peas and salad crops this year and the ex-duck compound will be used for brassicas.
Thankfully the netting fell onto the broccoli. We had a lovely meal of purple and yellow sprouting on Sunday evening and there should be plenty more to come.
This is just one plant and as five survived we should be able to continue picking for some time to come. I can see a brocolli quiche coming along soon..
