WELL ROTTED MANURE FOR ALLOTMENTS

Hi, 

I have a mountain of very old well rotted horse manure Free to your fellow allotmenteers if they would like it?

They can hire a lorry to collect it or come with their cars and fill up their bags.

It's an on going offer and we are open 7 days a week, 9am to 6pm and there is no need to make an appointment.

There are no herbicides used, so the manure is organic.

Many thanks

Leigh :)

Site Day

Due to a decent turnout of hard working folk and a last minute grab of scaffold it was a good site day to start the year.  Despite some early rain there were people on site at 10 am this morning working hard and having a laugh.  As everyone mucked in we got through most of the jobs on the list but there is still some work to.

We have some plexi glass for the notice board if anyone fancies trying to rebuild that. 
The treated boards need stowing for next site day (there is more shoring up to do)
Rear steps need some attention and there is always strimming and weeding of steps and paths to get on with.

So thanks to everyone who turned out - it was a good days work, shout to Clare for the chips and Geoff for getting the strimmer fixed.
