We are so pleased to finally have an allottment but now have to wait till 13th October to get onto it. I've got the key and we've visited the plot and it isn't as bad as we thought it could be.
We have a shed and raised beds, more sunken than anything and a few beds that are worthy of doing something now with some raspberry canes and a few leeks growing.
We cannot get at the moment as the person leaving has till then to clear the shed out, going to be a long 2 weeks but we can't wait to get going and the boys are very excited. We have a bit of work today in re-establishing the size of some of the beds and seeing what is lurking under some of the covers that are down, not looking forward to that.
The site we are on seems to be very poorly managed and there isn't one decent growing / looking plot. We are now hoping to borrow a petrol strimmer and go beg borrow or steal some timber, think I have an old friend whose a builder, will have to give him a tinkle. Once I can work out how to hook up the camera I'll show you the pictures.
First things first, weed, dig, manure and dig some more then onions, garlic, leeks and move my strawberries over.
