Year 3 Begins

It's now nearly 2 years since I took possession of plot 24b. Nice to have completed clearance of the turf and weeds at the end of last season, so not so much work to get things ready this year.

Managed a good couple of days work, in sunny spring weather, this weekend. Fruit is pruned, top dressed with bone meal and chicken pellets, and mulched with a generous layer of wood chippings. The old compost heap has been spread over what will be this season's brassica patch, and sowings of shallots and broad beans made.
