The first look

In our first class, back in January, as well as getting to know each other, we went through the priniciples of sustainable organic vegetable production, equipment, seeding and transplanting materials an allotment design plans. 

Then with our trench coats in hand and wrapped up warm, we ventured out to the allotment site. It was a cold four degrees. There the virgin allotments were, more than 30 plots, 5mx7m, bare and untouched. Let the ploughing, fertilising, sowing and planting begin.
