Update

Shallots covered to keep birds off.

Beetroot and Spinach being planted.

Hori Hori

Got myself a Hori Hori trowel.  Its really just a European copy made by 'Darlac', as the real things are not cheap, but its sturdy and really is as versatile as they say.  Really enjoying using it so far.

Update

Starting to look much better :-)

Far end is dying off as we keep attacking it.

Got some Raspberries planted up too in the fruit bed. :-)

Pressed for Time - Getting some Seeds in !

Yay !

We finally got some things in the ground. Springs getting on, and though we're later than we wanted, we're still in the race.
Pink Fur Apple Potatoes, Carrots, Shallots, Parsnips.

Pottery

All along the way, as we've been clearing and digging, I keep finding shards of white pottery.
Archaeologists call them "Sherds".
Some have really pretty glazes mostly of blues but some other colours.
I've been collecting them, and asking the other plot holders to keep them for me too. I plan to make a mosaic with them and maybe mount it on the shed eventually.

Bed Progress

Got to the edge of the measured area for beds.  Now just to get the edges and paths laid out.
The main beds take about half the plot.
Remaining space at the end will be for raised pallet collar beds, and the planned shed at the end !
