Purple is the colour

Well, signed on the dotted line. We will be proud owners of 15a from 1st June. The plot has some rhubarb already...going to seed but can save that. A few fruit bushes & some apple trees which may or may not be going. No shed though, so trying to source a shed 6x4 only (allotment rules). Found a shabby shed on Facebook for £25. No idea how I will get it from Elgin if it is available. The shed is priority. In addition to the allotment we also get a small plot in the polytunne. How cool is that? Tomatoes here I come. Roll on 1st June.

15a

15a is my plot! Sounds a bit like Harry Potter I'm thinking & I hope to create some magic here too. My first viewing is tomorrow & I am anxious about it. The plot is currently managed by a committee member. No pressure there then to succeed. The plot is well maintained apparently with some raised beds & some apple trees. The plot holder is planning to take some items so need to see what's left. I have to come to an arrangement on what is left. #allotmentetiquette.    I am excited.
