Soggy day on the Allotment
The Allotment team only did a short stint on Thursday due to the rain. The last of the apples )variety Hawthornden ) were picked, we cut down the Jerusalem artichokes to knee high and cut up the stems for the compost heap, temporarily propped up a couple of the fruit posts which had rotted at the base and blown over in the recent gale and secured the netting where it had been blown down. After a picking of sprouts, kale, broccoli and leeks and some apples, potatoes and onions from the store we retreated to shelter for a hot drink.
Jobs for next week
- Permanent stakes for the summer rasps
- Wood filler on the shed
- Prepare for the move of the bramble and saskatoon
