It was lovely to be back at The Haven today, continuing to prepare a Wildflower area at the back edge of the allotment.

Our task was to wheelbarrow cardboard to lay across the chopped down brambles, soak said cardboard with a hose and then cover the area in compost. The cooler weather brought faster barrowing (even with many dodgy wheels to contend with) and we manage to get a large area covered and ready for its next layers.

We also got a taste of fame as we starred in a short film being made about the project and were gifted kale fresh from the ground. Big thanks to Chris, Jenny, Vicki and Mel for all of your help today!
