Where to start …….
After about a year’s wait I have been to view three plots and picked one, which was a week ago, and now as of Tuesday we have the keys.
So what do I get for my £70.00 a year? (And £5.00 for association membership).
6.78m x 17.4m (5 poles?) of slightly overgrown but what looks to be well loved piece of land, 1 Plastic handmade greenhouse, 1 Shed, Good condition although door needs adjusting (Calendar inside still on Aug so assuming that’s when the plot was last touched).
The plot is next Located next to the compost bins (is this a good thing or bad?) (£1 per wheelbarrow load once paid membership), and Located next to wheelbarrows, the lock up for electric strimmer’s, rotavators etc (again can be hired) and a tap that is about 3 meters away.
We have two Trees, one of which is an apple tree approx. 2m to 3m tall (just starting to bud), the other tree I am yet to find out what this is.
Pictures are to follow, but feel free to ask me any questions, Roll on the weekend and to get a good 8 hours a day (weather permitting) on site.
Well anyway I am looking forward to mixing in with you all and starting the allotment journey.
