Hi Rebecca! I'm impressed that you've done such a good job, you sure you are only 9 years old, put my efforst to shame!

I'll add you a link to our blog when we next update it, ok?

Well done with all the work, what are you looking forwards to the most to eating from your plot? For me its gotta be the strawberries, sweetcorn and asparagus that we are growing! Mmmm!

Hi Rebecca, are you just going to do the blog, or are you going to take over a section of the allotment and grow your own?

Rebecca

What a great blog.

I wish my 10 year old, Oliver, was a helpful as you obviously are to your mum and Lynda. Oliver like being in the photos but is quite happy to leave the writing up to his dad (see my (our?) blog).
