The first week

Last Saturday we spent the afternoon digging over a 10 x 10 foot plot. This will be where we sow our broad beans. We tried what we thought was double digging, but actually it wasn't! But this turned out to be a good thing as the soil is very clay-y and we wouldn't want to have brought too much of the clay to the surface. Apparently.

Today the ground was too muddy to do too much digging, so we straightened up the path and edge of the allotment. Andrew is very good with a mattock. I'm not.
