Saturday 25th July
Me and dad went down in the morning to weed as with the holiday and week of window fitting we have not been getting to the allotment enough! We took down some panels that we made for the old chicken run so that we could dry weeds on them. We completely covered these and made a small pile too as the weeds had grown so large. Mum came down and weeded after making us lunch. We did some harvesting too which included a beetroot, blueberries, raspberries, turnips, cabbage and tomatoes.
Thursday 23rd July
Mum and dad went and weeded. They harvested potatoes, mangetout, courgette, salad leaf, tomatoes and cut back the tomatoes by the road.
Sunday 19th July
Me, mum and dad went down in the afternoon having been unable to get there previously due to wet weather and workmen. We took the compost, watered and fed in the greenhouse and harvested some mangetout, radish, lettuce and beetroot. We managed some weeding, but it has really got away from us due to the weather, work and so on. We all need to spend some decent time on weeding again to try and keep on top of it all.
Saturday 11th July
Me and dad went and weeded all morning, dad harvested some mangetout.
