April

By now a bit more progress is made and I have inspired the family to get involved.

We invest in some weed control fabric and get the rest of the plot covered.  Weighing down with any rubbish we can find around the plot.

The very back of the plot against the hedge is finally completely cleared of all rubbish and the soil levelled to take the compost bins.

The youngest daughter is convinced to help (hates soil) so bribed with money for a school trip and we complete another full row.

Finally I commit to buying plants - so potatoes are chitting in the shed, onions and shallots are bought and raspberries, strawberries, currant and gooseberry bushes ordered online.

There is no going back now!!
