At our February committee meeting it was agreed that all new plotholders will initially be offered small or mini plots. In addition, any plotholder who wishes to, will be allowed to reduce the size of their plot to a half or mini. This will give more people the opportunity to get allotments and hopefully, improve the overall standard of allotment cultivation. The situation will be monitored monthly and reviewed annually. If you have any thoughts on the matter please contact a committee member. We have received a grant from the Ward Community Chest and will use this to remove the 5 large trees at the bottom of the site, adjacent to the roadway. The bee talk, given by Adam Bates was very informative. There was a good turn-out, despite the weather. Alex Findlater has a Mantis Tiller for sale £50 o.n.o. (carburetor may need adjusting). Please contact me or a committee member if you are interested. Competition potatoes are available. Seed potatoes are going fast. Grow bags are expected in in the next few days. I have also ordered Humax Universal to make a change from Erin. Unfortunately there are some big price increase on the way, so if you want something from the shed at the old prices, I would get it quickly.
