You have had massive success with your potager – that alone is worthy of a big shiny trophy. At least next year you will know what to do before those pesky wabbits come along xx

Think of it as natural pruning. Are you sure it’s only bunnies ? I have to fight off the birds from my raspberries and blackcurrants because the bushes aren’t netted over. I usually get sufficient raspberries to put a handful on my cereal each morning but there are always enough blackcurrants from 4 bushes for crumbles or even jam.
