sourcing manure

ask your fellow plotholders where they get their's from, or just phone or call in at local stables
I get mine from a local stables and they are glad to get rid if it. It's fairly fresh, but it's free. I got a whole trailer load delivered on the corner of my plot; that's about eight tons! I gave the driver a fiver for the diesel

Or, if you can get hold of some bales of straw, seek out a local pigeon fancier who will be only too pleased to get rid of his bird-poo.
Soak the staw in layers with the pigeon droppings (and anything else compostable) and leave for a year. Good stuff!
