Allotment clear up


A couple of weeks ago we had a very special treat when Matt and Rebecca visited in that Matt was spared to spend some time at our allotment. The main job that the boys tasked themselves with was having a big clear up - mainly No 53 and the area next to the little greenhouse on No 52.

Both areas look fantastic but one of the things that it brought home is what a fantastic job the ducks did of keepingthe weeds and grass down in No 53 (now known as the orchard). This is the bag of weeds and cuttings that Matt put in a bag.

One big problem is that he has now gone back to his own allotment leaving us with this bag which is so heavy we can't move it, so it is going to stay where it is and be a permanant feature for greenery that can't be composted and as it rots down we will just keep adding to it.

Bonus.
