Transition Greenspaces In October

Posted on 27 October 2021

We are beginning to wind down now at the allotments and our recent group visits have been involved in having a good tidy up and making a start on mulching beds, ready for spring sowing. In the polytunnel the tomatoes are still producing well, as are the salad crops. We have a few pumpkins almost ready to share with our volunteers and have recently processed loads of apples. The sprouts, chard and celeriac are not long off harvesting now and we’re doing bi-monthly manure runs to a local farm so that our beds will hopefully be even more productive next year.

It’s been a very rewarding year, despite all the restrictions and our team is gradually growing. If you fancy getting involved, do email us: [email protected]

What a strange summer we are having - tadpoles in the pond in July and the Rowan full of berries, drought and very slow growth in June and everything's gone mad in the past 2 weeks since it got wetter - some things putting on a couple of feet in less than a week!! All part of the new "normal" I guess....

Big thanks to Tracey, Kay, Jay, Emma, Michael and Sally for coming to help Alan and I knock it all back into shape.
