Planting potatoes
In the first few weeks of March, we got all our potatoes planted. Most were bought from the East Anglia Potato Day. We were advised to stick with early potatoes rather than main crop potatoes due to the increased risk of blight. So we will see how our first and second early potatoes get on. And the very exciting blue ones :)
Carrots, spinach and broad beans have also been planted.

Gist on You Tube

If you haven't visited our You Tube Channel recently, take a look. We now have 10 subscribers (yay 10 - so impressive lol)! Admittedly two of those are Andy and Sharon, but the rest are perfect strangers with what seems to be some excellent advice about how we can go about our first year as beginner "allotmenteers" :) Check out their videos too, there are some really useful ones.
Lots of love xxx
