After a solid few days of clearing the more vigorous weeds we could finally begin to see where the vegetables might grow. This is where I came in, designing a masterplan and planting schemes for the first year’s growing.
As the project had been delayed due to the lockdown restricting site access, I had to work fast. In fact, I’ve never produced a plan so quickly in my life.
Further unavoidable delays were encountered while protective frames were built and beds were thoroughly weeded and manured. Yet thanks to the hard work of all the volunteers we now have a fantastic kitchen garden that is already producing crops. Vegetables that will go to local communal kitchens to feed those in need.
