Its the Kids’ club today and, since I have been off, the rest of the flower/vegi beds have been painted and some vegetables have been planted. We have been told that we cannot continue the allotment we put so much effort into because the youth project were not sending any people down to it.
This is a real shame as we have spent a lot of hours cleaning up the old compost heaps , the piles of rubble and clearing the weeds. The people on the allotment committee have waited until we have got the place into a good state of repair before throwing us off. This seems pointless as we have lots of veg in the plot and we will now have to dig up the potatoes early and try to
transplant the cabbages.
The cabbages have been moved to the beds the kids finished off painting last week and we will have to net them to stop the birds getting to them. We helped the kids make two new scarecrows and then paint them. I also took the kids on a wee walk around the woods which they all seemed to enjoy.
Cheers
