Well done! and if it were me I would forget about the raised beds! but then again; thats me 8)

I notice no one around you seems to have them, save your money and invest in good seed and manure/fertilsers instead!

I can hardly believe it . Your plot looks a lot better than some folks on our site who have had their plots for years. I'm not a supporter of raised beds either. The excercise I get from digging across the plot is better than going to any gym.

That is one (at least) dedicated plotter.
The hard work done, now the planning and harvesting!

Brilliant - well done Liza!

Shows what you can achieve with persistence and a load of hard work!

You should feel very proud of yourself and I hope hubby is proud of you too!

I don't know what it is but when I see allotments and sheds it takes me back to when I was a kid it must be the happy and getting in to trouble that I remember, :)
