Essential April Gardening Tasks | What to Sow & Plant Now for a Productive Spring Garden
It’s April in the garden, and everything is starting to come alive!
In this video, I’m sharing the essential tasks I’m doing this month in our Irish countryside garden—what I’m sowing, planting, tidying, and feeding to set things up for a productive spring.
From direct sowing peas, beans, and root veg to planting potatoes and sweet peas, this is a real look at what’s happening in my garden right now. I hope it gives you some inspiration and encouragement for your own garden area, too 🌱
