It’s very grey and wet outside but absolutely gorgeous and warm inside thanks to our glasshouse and waste-wood bio-mass boiler. Of course we could do with a little more radiation but things are still progressing nicely in here 💪🥒#protectedcropping #familyfreshfarms #qukes pic.twitter.com/zCNJXFgE0Z — Nicky Mann (@hortinix) March 15,…
