On
13th November the awards evening for all allotments in borough of
Lewisham took place .... WELDONE to Rachel who won best plot for our site, and
BIG WELDONE to us all for again coming second in best site category.
It is a great accomplishment....but first place is still the
goal!!!
The
proposal for a communal polytunnel has been agreed- we have the funds and
Dennis has kindly agreed to organise purchase and delivery.
The ground we plan to position it on needs to be prepared-
volunteers needed- Sunday 25th November at 1pm. It should only take
about an hour if there are a few of us.....
Then the erection of the polytunnel is planned for first week
in January- how does Saturday 5th sound to you??? Many hands really do make light work-
and this project will benefit us all, either directly, if you are growing in
it, or indirectly as plants will be grown for sale, and proceeds used to fund
future projects / events.
Please let us know if you can help- THANKYOU.
Names put forward for 5 ft section (£10 per year) inside the
tunnel are: Vilma; Dennis; Bob and Lynn; Marion and Dave; Denny and Steve;
Susan and Simon; Nick; Roy; Rachel (leaving 1 ‘’plot’’ to grow things to
sell) if you would like to go on
the reserve list, let me know as someone may change their mind..
We hope this addition will be a big asset to the site.
Bonfire party on the 3rd went with a bang
(sorry!!) Seriously, it was a great evening enjoyed by all there. Hope to see even more join us next
year.
Honey made from Bees on our site is still available from
Mike- but selling fast. His contact details are on blogg and on his plot. (£4
jar) it is wonderful.
Seed order went off and delivery expected of seeds in
two/three weeks- thanks to all who made an order- our % back came to nearly
£50. Amazing!
Happy Gardening
Denny (Secretary)
