Allotments 4 All

One of our plotholders owns a fish and chip shop and will give us as many paper potato sacks as we want.  They are made of thick brown paper, about 3 layers thick.

Apart from the obvious - using them to store our potatoes - what else could they be used for?  Would they be ok for lining paths or would they disintegrate too quickly?  Any other uses?

Sell them at your open days.  I hope to be there and would buy some.

What a good idea, I never thought of that!
(see you next year) :)

Please be sure to save me some.

Good idea about the open day Betty. I would have some but have already bought the hessian ones last year.

If you really get too many you can shred and compost them... but selling at the open day is a good idea..  :)

Line them in bean and squash trenches.  ;D ;D ;D

My worms like brown corrugated cardboard, perhaps they might get to like shredded brown paper!

Wrap Christmas presents ?

You could stand by the cash desks at Toys'R'Us or the local GC, doing a wrap-and-go service.

Sack races ?
