That's what I said when I saw the allotment today after 2 weeks.
even t couldn't believe what had happened to our plot
everything has grown!
but
And its a big butt
The weeds have grown and that's about it :-(
So I stood and stared
I mean I really just stood and stared for a long time trying to think about what on earth I can do with this plot that takes time and effort but so far has given me nothing in return.
Whilst these negative feelings were engulfing me, shouting out all the reasons why I should step away from the land, get back into the car and go home and try to forget this whole episode - I spotted a bee and another and another. I couched and saw my over-grown salad leaves were providing nectar for the bees. Then I saw spiders and other insects.
At least my land is giving a tasty bite to the insects.
That's something - no?
So armed with my courgette plants given by DS (dearest sister) I got my fork and starting digging.
I am now going to become an obsessive mulcher - I have covered the area with woodchip - let's hope it works
Other areas of the plot - a manky looking pond, t's area and some other shots
OK
that's enough for now
hey i love those pics of ur allotment :)
