Welcome

Welcome to March Allotment Heaven. Early potatoes are chitted and planted, early leeks have all popped up. Thanks to the toil of my hard working trainee (wife Linda, who has an alternative view on expertise) the front plot is dug over and ready. Welcome to Spring at last! Thanks for reading my blog. John
