There I was last night (at 10pm, I’d realised I’d forgotten to close up the greenhouses and would need to make the trip down the lottie) pulling up a bit of mares tail and my hand closed around something completely different – it was quite, quite dark, but even so I could make out what looked suspiciously like asparagus.
The early morning trip today confirmed my suspicions. Huzzah!
I'm Tim, a 28yr old ex-Allotmenteer. My wife and I used to have a small 5 rod plot in South Essex where we grew all manner of veg. I'm also involved in brewing the odd keg of beer.
Recently we bought a house with a 65ftx30ft garden, which we're converting into a mini orchard and veg beds. The entire transformation is happening at the moment and being chronicled by a timelapse camera.
The hope is to introduce chickens next year into the orchard to allow them free range.
