Is a caterpillar ticklish?

Today everyone worked very hard weeding, watering and harvesting cabbages. The snails and caterpillars fascinated everyone and the fact that they eat our vegetables was forgotten for a moment.

Mums in the compost

Thursday was an inspiring day in the garden. I was expecting one or two children but ten children and their parents came. The compost was turned, the beds were weeded and tidied, seeds were planted. It poured with rain just after we had finished.
