The shed takes it's place well.



The shed has been erected and is a timely addition to the plot. The tools can come down now and will save on the carrying back and to. The shed will become a welcome haven during the frequent rain showers.

The wet weather continues


Progress at the allotment has been slow due to continuous wet weather. We have ordered a shed however, so the base had to go down!

The carrots are in and new beds in progress

The carrots are now sown in the third bed, we have started a fourth bed and completed a fifth bed at the start of a new column.

So now we're ready for sowing carrots!



The new bed completed, and a view of the progress on the rest of the Allotments. There are very busy people here and the second photo shows the results of their hard work.

Pushing on!



I am now moving onto the next bed as there maybe time for some carrots for October harvest.

Into July


Then at the beginning of July the fruits of the hard labour begin to appear.

Keeping the Birds away


Throughout June I tried to keep the birds away from the emerging Pea plants.

The beginning, early June 2009.




These are new allotments at Pentre Gwyn, Wrexham. The hard work has started and the first two beds are ready. Due to the lateness of the start I am going for Runner Beans, Dwarf French Beans and main crop peas.
