Herts County Council Highways Update on the COVID 19 Impact from Cllr Stephen Giles-Medhurst.

I am grateful for the following bulletin from my colleague, County Councillor Stephen Giles-Medhurst, Leader of the Lib Dem group on Herts County Council. HCC Highways are continuing to monitor and adapt to the current situation and are keeping the highway safe and operational while working to government safe working guidelines, including those relating to construction works.

Then the greenhouse will be cleaned, the beds cleared out and replaced with a mix of fresh ericaceous compost mixed with richer material from our own compost bin - ready for tomatoes once the seedlings have grown. This years spinach and chard will be going straight into the garden in a muntjac-proof enclosure - and a second patch of garden is being fettled up ready for the seed potatoes we bought just before lockdown. I know not everyone has the space to grown vegetables, but if you can, you'll find it good, healthy exercise and very satisfying.
