What's your weather like 2026
We’ve had a bit of rain and it’s forecast light rain on and off all weekend. Lovely when the sun does peep out though.

Rhubarb Bolting In March
Ants farming aphids on rhubarb is a new one for me. I've had them do it on broad beans but never thought to check the rhubarb. Might have a look at mine this weekend now.
