Been talking about doing this for a while, put my name down a couple of months ago expecting to be waiting for quite a while. They called me Thursday to say a plot had came up. Went down to the allotments today and was shown my plot.....
It's a bit daunting. This was the best of 2 availilbe plots. It was used to keep bees in the previous years but the bees stung everyone and was booted off! It's a shame because it was in the back of my mind to keep bees one day. A small area of the plot is covered with carpet but the rest is a weed jungle. I think in the first year i'm going to cultivate half of it and see how I get on.
Between now and Feb I will spend time digging the ground over and building the raised beds. Also need to put up a shed and compost bin. I knew that paslode would come in handy again!
Wish me luck!
