Plot progress. The front half is almost ready for sowing and planting up from next month onwards.

A Jostaberry now occupies the space the mass of wild brambles used to.

No dig gardening beds, some in the process of being made, run down the length of an allotment plot either side of a wood chip central path. Bags of collected wood chip are lying on cardboard with some rolls of wire mesh which will be used to protect a bed from curious muntjac. A couple of reclaimed water tanks will be sunk into the space in between the no dig beds for their new life as ponds.
A two year old Jostaberry plant taken from a cutting freshly transplanted and mulched with wood chip in an allotment bed. Some cardboard is placed as weed suppressant where a pathway will be in between the Jostaberry and a nettle patch. Wild brambles have been trained along a post and wire fence. Beyond that is a footpath and a re-laid hedge of a nature reserve. An elderberry is growing to the left surrounded with wood chip mulch.
