There’s a wise saying that feels just right for early spring; ‘If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need’. The urge to get outdoors again, to grow things and notice nature in its miraculous annual rebirth, is often tempered by March’s unreliable weather – and that’s when we can turn to planning trips and learning something new, without feeling that spring is happening elsewhere. Pastimes come into their own now the essential dormancy of winter is behind us – mending and stitching, making art, baking a pie or building a shed. Gather friends to finish craft projects together or go foraging for tips, shoots and buds.
Whether you prefer sowing seeds or sewing clothes, this is a time to make the most of what we enjoy, to mend us and re-energise for the year to come. And this year, spring comes with pancakes!
