We spent the middle portion of today down at the allotment and have got the next two raised beds built and more of the weed suppressant membrane down.  We also did some odds and ends of tidying up and set a bonfire.  We’ve got two beds to go and the greenhouse to get in and then all our growing spots will be done.  There will be further infrastructure to go in (a second compost bin a tool store and a bench) but it is now very clear how the plot is developing – and it is looking good.

We have also prepared a master plan as a spreadsheet that shows all the hard features and allows us to keep track of the contents of each bed over the years so that we can manage crop rotation properly.
