Space


We're getting very organised at plot 28a. Today we moved the tool box back and the new space we have is amazing. Definitely enough for a long thin bed, perfect for parsnips I think. It will be quite a shaded bed, but there are so many things that need some shade so it will always be in use.
I moved some of the bluebell bulbs to beside the water butt, and finally put the clematis in the ground beside the rusty water tank.
We dug out some massive roots from where the tool box used to be, they were huge. We couldn't dig them out completely...we'd have been digging for the rest of the week if we'd wanted to get them out properly. We had to cut the roots in the end.
I love the plot now, there's so much space and its so much more organised.
James has also built the other cage, it can be moved on to any of the other small beds, wherever the sweetcorn goes it will follow! He's going to build me a low one for the strawberry bed, think that'll be it for cages, everyone else is already looking at our plot with raised eyebrows!!
And at last, I've picked something from the plot that we can eat! We'll be having a delicious savoy cabbage with our dinner this weekend.
