'Apprentice' Raised Beds Project

Following on from last year's project to build raised beds at the southern fence, we have built 12 raised beds on a vacant plot beside the hut. The plot is slightly overshadowed by a large tree whose roots do cause problems digging.

The plan is to complete them and invite the next six people from the top of the waiting list if they would like to make use of a couple of raised beds and get accustomed to 'allotment life'. Hopefully in a season or two they will have their own plot by which time they will know people at the site and also have some knowledge of growing vegetables.
