Better Weather

March has arrived and with it better weather. It was bright and sunny, but still cold. I headed to the allotment myself, and got lots done.

  • Fixed some wind damage – blown over rain barrels.
  • Dug over bed 1.
  • Got 10 barrow-loads of manure.
  • Distributed some manure to the raspberries and rhubarb.
  • Started digging over bed 2.

The digging was a bit of hard work and I’m really suffering for it now.

Also, got some new neighbours in the empty plot next to me. They have started well and cleared a lot of bramble growth. They will still need to dig the roots out. But a good start, let’s hope they keep coming back.

My potatoes are chitting in the porch, some growth started.
