The Pyjama Gardeners

22/02/2026

Been very busy making whole new plans for this year. Including taking people on wild fungi and fauna walks.

The whole gentleman's garden is now due reorganisation and reconstruction. With greenhouses will be turned into one, the beds need redoing, outbuildings to go in, lots to do!! I will however be keeping good records here.

In the meantime I have been adding new content to my YouTube channel.

Please do take a look 🙏

With approaching, I wanted to show you something I think is quite special and often goes amiss. ...

I love growing winter salads. Mizuna in particular. This year we also have a mustard and Mibuna too. Just a little zing to add to a winter warming dinner. Perfect for tonights Spag Bol 😋

Here already!! 🐻 Bears leeks - Wild garlic 🧄 - Allium ursinum ✨️ - call it what you will. To me it's a sign that winter is coming to an end and Spring is just around the corner.
I'll be making salt, pesto, stuffing potatoes for the campfire, tasty tansies, the list is almost endless 😋

Mahoosive Galanthus...

Chimonanthus praecox, Winter-sweet. A boring shrub but one of my favourites, because of its most fabulous flowers. The fragrance is incredible but you've gotta get up close and be quick to experience it. A true herald of late winter and the forthcoming spring.

Jalapeño pickles, whole ones, baby ones and sliced ones. Sliced Padron pepper pickles and a whole load of greens on for a fermented green sauce 😋
Just a load more to prepare for some red sauces...

Pickles and chilli sauce time x Just jalapeños, padron and apache this year.

I had a fantastic green chilli sauce from the States, so I'm going to separate out all the green ones for an attempt at something similar. Then a red sauce and then pickle the rest. Perhaps a lactofermented sauce if there's enough.
