Hi, Yes I am still about lol.
We have been over the allotment all day today, we have moved plots since the fire and I am very happy with my new plot. We still have the old plot as we still have cabbages, onions and garlic waiting to be ready to harvest. The cabbages are ready but the onions and garlic are not, so we will keep it until they are ready.
We have not been paying the old plot much attention and we went and weeded it the other day, today we removed 8 wheelbarrow loads of green waste from there. We also transplanted a thornless gooseberry and blackberry bushes.
We still have 2 apple trees, loads of strawberry plants, poppies and comfrey plant to move. We are leaving the raspberries because there is loads on the new plot already. We have already transplanted our asparagus, I thought it would die, but it appears to be OK - big sigh of relief :)
Also on the new plot we have inherited a shed, it needs painting. It has a massive elderflower tree behind it which needed cutting back so that was another job we did today. Thankfully a fellow plot holder, Charlie Thrale borrowed us his shredder which was a god send because it made light work of cutting up them branches. I also cut back 2 wheelbarrow loads of bramble.
We will be back over there tomorrow I will try and get some photos to add to the posts and will update you on what we do tomorrow.
