We are Back


Its been a while but we have decided to start updating this blog site.  As we have been at home for the last 2 weeks due to the Virus we have taken the opportunity to do some digging at the allotment.As the ground was really soft it been really easy to dig it over.  We haven't 100% completely weeded it yet but we hope to do it soon. 

This used to be several different beds but we have decided to try and get rid of the grass as much as we can and make a very large bed.  This method worked really well for us and it allows to plant easier as I have more room and less restricted by being in small beds.  Our next view to give it another dig over, hopefully, the rotavator will be fixed.I also, have some potato coming in a few days and they will go in this bed.Bed below is not great for growing not sure why.  Steve has started to dig it over as we plan to put our new raspberry plants when they arrive

I only have a few Broad Beans growing that I planted just after Christmas and they seem to be doing really well. Tomorrow I am planning loads of planting in the greenhouse
