We hope you’ve had an amazing festive holiday. So, what’s on the horizon? Soil and Surf will be making waves 🌊, as Jim has been asked to skipper a creel boat out of Pittenweem over the next couple of months. This means our focus is on ‘surf’ for the foreseeable future and our availability for soil-based activities will be scaled back. We’ll keep you updated as the seasons roll from winter into spring. Meanwhile, hope to catch you later in 2021….</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span face="-apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 14px;"></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span face="-apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 14px;">Image - Pittenweem Sunrise, by Stuart at </span><a class="notranslate" href="https://www.instagram.com/granitecreative/" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; vertical-align: baseline;">@granitecreative</a><span face="-apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 14px;"></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span face="-apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 14px;"></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span face="-apple-system, system-ui, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 14px;">Dive deeper at<a href="http://www.soilandsurf.com/"> soilandsurf.com</a></span>Acoustic Wave, East Neuk, Scotlandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06825794173182183780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1000276409570802494.post-68491368871482027512019-09-26T02:22:00.001-07:002019-09-26T02:22:58.953-07:00How Do You Like 'Em?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Lately, we’ve been stewing our apples for crumbles and eating the cherry tomatoes like sweets. Soon though, it’ll be time to enjoy only what’s been stored in the freezer, jars or shed. For us, this will mostly be tatties, peas, onions, strawberry jam and beetroot. We’ll feast as the nights draw in and give thanks for our harvest, as the summer drifts into memory…</span><br />

This week - 25th May to 2nd June - is <a href="http://www.childrensgardeningweek.co.uk/" style="font-weight: bold;">National Children's Gardening Week</a>! Do your little ones love getting into the garden? We’ve noticed that kids in our neighbourhood, given the chance, are often eager to discover the delights of <b>growing </b>things - everything from tomatoes, courgettes, tatties and peas, to strawberries, raspberries and apples. Discovering different types of <b>herbs</b> and planting <b>flowers</b> are also popular pastimes. And it’s no wonder. Research shows that connecting with the natural world is great for a child’s physical and mental health. And, learning how to <b>grow your own </b>food is an amazing life skill. In fact, we think a garden is the ultimate school of life!<br />
:<br />
Planting the seeds of what will hopefully grow into a lifelong passion for gardening is a real privilege and pleasure. Even if you only have a tiny outdoor space, or very little time on your hands, the Soil and Surf team can can help you create a garden that will encourage the whole family to flourish!

It is the highlight of our trip and indeed for many of our clients, when Jim drops round his crab and/or lobsters, wearing his yellow wellies and a broad smile (honestly the best I have ever tasted). I wholeheartedly recommend <a href="http://www.soilandsurf.com/">Soil and Surf</a> and look forward to enjoying their services for many years to come.'</span></div>
