Back to Having 2 Plots!

Took over a 2nd plot again today, had asked the plot secretary to let us know if the little plot next to ours became available as it would have been a nice addition.  However, when the call came through, it wasnt available but the plot the OTHER side of us was...... same size as ours so a lot more work, not really been worked for a while, was towering with thistles last year so hope to get it all dug over before things started getting out of hand.  Lots of brambles but mostly spreading over from the hedges so should just need cutting back and keeping control of.  So, deep breath and signed for it.  Hopefully get it dug over by end of March (got week off end of the month so no excuse!) and get the beans and potatoes in at least.  Rest of Plot 119 all ready for seedlings when the weather sorts itself out.  Simon put up the little greenhouse in the garden at home this week so hopefully get sorted with seed compost tomorrow and get some seeds started, propagators all ready to go now too, so no excuse!  Just looking forward to Spring!

 

The work ahead.....

  2. Both 3/4 plots but to be honest, on the allotment site map they look the same size as the full size ones.... dont think there is any difference!
