As we arrived at the SHP allotment it struck us that it now actually looks like an allotment now. The fruit trees and bushes are now in bud, the vegetables patches have onions, garlic and lambs lettuce growing nicely and there are some seedlings starting to pop up in the cloche. The clients are now engaged in working on the allotment on most Wednesdays but as they are limited on the amount of time they can spend there it still needs GG help to maintain it.

Todays tasks were Ed assessing how best to expand the compost area while Linda took photographs of the spring growth. Linda then started weeding around the fruit trees while Ed finished clearing the concrete slab that task owner Lorena started clearing last week. It was a short but productive session
