Autumn leaves are falling

After an absence of over a fortnight, we actually managed to visit the allotment last week.

As always, after unloading the car, we checked on any plants that were still growing. That didn't take very long as, at this time of year most of the beds are empty. We were pleased to see that the winter onions, shallots and garlic were growing away well. We were especially pleased to see that the shallots have started to grow as there was no sign of this the last time that we checked. I don't expect much more growth to be put on now until next spring when hopefully they will grow away quickly.

Water, water everywhere

Another week has gone by with no gardening taking place.

We are so glad to have got all our digging and bed preparation done before all the rain set in. After all the exceptional rainfall the soil will most certainly be soaked and too wet to do anything with. We have fruit bushed to prune or cut back but we are guessing the paths will be too soggy to walk on as we don't want to turn them into mud.
