We got our plot in July, if this photo works it should show my daughter helping us do some clearing. It hadn't been used for about 8 yrs.

We cleared a small patch and quickly put in some runner beans, just to keep us interested.
Then slowly took off all the turf and made a big heap at one end and have covered it.
Next we started digging and pulling out as many weeds as we could.
If this picture works I will post another of how it looks now.
Can't wait to see the after - having just got my own bare plot. It looks like a warm day for digging there! Ahhh warm days...... :)
This is the plot now, all ready to go, beyond the shed we have planted raspberries and gooseberries. Also a raised bed for strawberries.

Brilliant - you've obviously been working very hard! I don't think mine will ever look as neat as that!
Amazing Marjrie :o
;D ;D ;D ;D
I think it looks so tidy as it's empty, can't imagine keeping it like that once we have done some planting and the weeds start growing!
wow it looks amazing!
It really looks fabulous. What a transformation! Will you fence it in to protect it from rabbits etc?
