Plot no. 20

So after almost a year of not posting here I am.  Life just got too busy and this was the last thing on my mind, although now I have reason, I am starting a creative writing course and I will need somewhere to keep my work.  So alongside my allotment and crafting talk I will now be trying to write daily creatively to practise and inspire myself.
Firstly the allotment....
Plot number 20 is looking fabulous it started out looking like this....

And has been transformed to look like this...

Beause of the glorious weather we have been having here we have even managed to start planting and I will be adding photos of that soon.
We now have three large raised beds and a long bed running up the side and across the back.  We have also made a request for the plot behind as that has been uncultivated for over a year and we would like to add fruit trees and more beds, along with a seating, BBQ area. 
As a family we have loved being down there nd the kids are especially enjoying it now that the planting has begun.  They also like to visit the 6 brand new chilckens that reside in another plot.  The Mister regularly goes for a visit to the ladies for a chat.

We all have an out dooorsy look about us too as our long summer evenings are being spent outside digging and planting.
I'm looking forward to all of the yummy vegetable dishes I will be able to prepare and make, the kids have already enjoyed the first red strawberry which they savoured with glee!!
Right off to make lunches etc but I will be back soon with photos of the planted plot and hopefully some free writing.
