If you missed the garden fair at St Antonin last weekend (or even if you didn't) next Sunday - 24th April, also Easter Sunday, will be the annual Spring Fair at Laguepie. Probably the biggest local garden fair all manner of growers will be there with ready to plant flowers, shrubs and vegetables. Plus lots of advice.
Many local French people advise that this is the signal that it is now safe to plant out your geraniums etc.
So dust off the spade and trowel, sharpen the secateurs, get the lawn mower serviced and dig in.
