Next steps

We've been to the potato day since we last updated but forgot to take any photos. There were lots of potatoes to choose from but settled on a few varieties, some garlic, shallots, tricolour onions, a small bay tree and a peach tree!


Our potatoes are happily chitting in the utility room where it's not too warm nor to cold.

Potatoes chitting in egg boxes.
The bay tree is currently on the kitchen window sill as its probably too cold still for it to go outside and the peach tree is tucked up in the greenhouse as its definitely too cold for it to be outdoors all the time.

The rest of the time has been taken up by us planning what is going to go where at the allotment ( I will upload the plan) and we really need to get on with buying some veg seeds or plants based on this plan as other than the few seeds we inherited from the previous caretakers (and our potatoe day haul) we don't have anything to plant! But we do now have the keys so we can officially say that we are looking after an allotment!!
