The super pod!
The Pembrokeshire coastline is always impressive, but sometimes it’s amazing! A large ‘super pod’ of over 500 dolphins were spotted earlier this week just off the coast a few miles north of St Davids. Click on the link below to have a look. Dolphin spotting off the Pembrokeshire coast.

Anyone who has been to St Davids knows there are some pretty good restaurants and cafés in the area and its nice to get some mentions in the national press.

The last blog post mentioned that our new potato crop (Colleen variety) would be ready for picking by the end of May. Well it’s the end of May and they are ready so we thought we’d pick them. (I’m using the royal ‘we’ as I haven’t actually picked any. . . yet) I shall therefore attempt to attach some video of the picking in full swing for all those interested. The filming, incidentally, was carried out by dad (Wyn) multi tasking, as he was also the tractor driver. * CAERFAI ORGANIC POTATOES AVAILABLE...

This years crop of our organically produced potatoes are coming on well. Here are some pics from our ‘new potato’ crop which were dug up this morning.
