Our Allotment in March 2022

 March a month when you finally see some flowers, but most importantly a month when we celebrate our lasses birthday and our wedding anniversary.

A birthday picnic to celebrate our lasses birthday

Spring has sprung the daffs are out
Crocus out , out front
Our first outing for the sun brolly

Our lass puts the final touches to the fence

It seemed a good idea at the time, not so when I had taken all the glass out.

Moved the grape outside, now lets pray it survives.

One of our lasses greatest finds for free from last year, this time around it gets a service new wooden side panels and our lass freshly varnished all the cold frame.

Most of the glass back in the greenhouse and all the boxes set out ready for the coming growing year








Our Allotment in Feb 2022

 Our lass has a lot more faith in me than I do in myself. We completed the fencing which had taken a while but it was a bit at a time job, do a couple of posts connect the pallets carry on. But we finished it. YAY!!!

But first a view from the shed. a forever job of replenishing the wood chip.

Complete
A job which consumed the month but was very satisfying when done.



Our Allotment in January 2022

 They sing about don't fence me in and wanting land lots of land. There are times though when you want to know your borders. January was fence repair and replacement time

A lovely layer of manure and new posts with curbing in place to retain the soil our lass did a grand job more photos to come of completed project

On t'other side the start of the great barrier allotment
And it grows
It does look good on how the light hits the wood.

A grand view with lots of potential to come through the year

from 50 down to 37 onions how many will survive?
