Welcome.

On 6th April 2007 a very small piece of lawn was dug up, and a raised bed was made. It was sown with a few rows of vegetables. Late in 2009 we gained an half an allotment (plot 54B). What happens next??

Surprise, Surprise

Quite a few hours were spent on the plot today. There was a lot of weeding and tidying up to do, with the brambles still trying to show everywhere you look.

I dug over and mulched the empty broad beans and pea beds, which gives more access to other things for harvesting.

Surprises included:
  • The sunflowers in bloom
  • Cauliflowers ready (and now harvested)
  • Lots of runner beans and french beans
  • Lots and lots and lots of Courgettes (some now made into courgettes bread and courgette with chard and ginger soup.
In addition, more potatoes, carrots and beetroot were also harvested.
