so… we have taken on an allotment!

We have a half allotment (big enough i can tell you!) I am undertaking this with two of my daughters, alice and louise.  sarah, my other daughter, is already a year ahead of us with an allotment about two pitches down from ours…. she is the expert that we are all leaning on…

We took on our pitch at the start of November 2011… At first it looked kinda overgrown, but on digging we discovered that it had been well tended as the soil was loose and in good condition.

So gradually it has been totally dug over - and now we wait for the opportunity to plant and grow….
