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??

Flowers and Berries

One of my allotment goals this year was to grow more flowers for cutting. In additional to the usual sweet peas, today I found the first of the sunflowers for cutting were ready. I'm also trying to grow more fruit. So far it's only strawberries that are ready, but they taste great.

Everything else just keeps growing quickly, especially weeds. The peas aren't cropping heavily, and courgettes are struggling at the moment, but I'm sure they will pick up.
