It was visit number five to Magret's plot at the Greenhill View Allotments. Those of you who have been to a session here before or have been following the reports will know that this is quite a big plot which was completely overgrown before our first visit two months ago. You may also remember that it's been warm with no rain since we started so it's been getting harder and harder to dig the weeds out and keep them down. Progress has definitely been slow over the last two sessions. Last night though, the long awaited rain came and what a difference it made! We were finally able to get to the far end of the plot. We also re-positioned some pieces of wood around the edges, so the plot looks complete! Task owner Sue seemed delighted when she returned and we hope Magret will be too. She's already begun planting some veg with the help of a friend. Hopefully the plot will now flourish!

Unfortunately my GoodGym IT gremlins persist so I have only been able to upload one photo. I'll share the rest in our WhatsApp and Facebook groups so hop over there to marvel at the difference we've made!
