Today was the first allotment session back after Easter and we were all ready and raring to get gardening. Much had changed over the Easter break. Our tulips and daffodils we had planted in March had finally flowered, our onions and peas had grown nearly a foot tall and the weeds did not disappoint. However, the biggest shock was the school next door being pulled down and levelled which gave rise to an expansive post-apocalyptic landscape immediately beyond the allotment wall. However, as one of us pointed out, it was not all bad news as we now have a beautiful view of the Cheshire hills beyond. We are unsure how long it will last, but we certainly are not complaining! The rest of the afternoon was spent planting vegetable seeds from carrots and courgettes to spinach and radishes. Yum!
