Off to bed...

Hooray! First bed is turned over although it will still need going over with a rake and fingers to remove the smaller bramble root strands. The soil is great and the Azada is a miracle tool for this job. I have had no back strain or pain whatsoever and completed the bed in around 2-3 hours. Lots of very tenacious bramble roots removed, again, a surprisingly easy task with the Azada.


The bed extends about 4 metres x the full width of the allotment, around 8 metres. The rough area at the front in the pic will be the location of the path and shed when sourced.


We have also harvested our first crop...


3 small healthy potatoes growing amongst the bramble roots!
