Our allotment

Sometimes my little haven for peace & quiet where I love to grow things I can share with my family & friends.

Yes we must be mad

I can hear you wondering now whats this she's growing here looks like a lot of weeds to me and you would be right because infact its a new plot we have taken on for next year. It continues on from our one we have already and as my husband said "why not" when I mentioned it to him I jumped at the chance. All the grass which is upto my shoulders needs cutting down and then we will rotivate. We are hoping to get it done this year (can't see why not) and then put cardboard & mulch on top to stop the weed growth. The aim is to use this plot for fruit, strawberrys, cape gooseberry, rubuarb, melons & I bet a find a few more. When planning our other plots this year I realised to get a good harvest of strawberrys you need quite a few plants and as they stay in the ground all year round it would take up a fair amount of space.
