Saturday September scorcher with bright blue skies and sunshine welcoming Fanette and Ben to Albermarle Allotments for their community allotment muck-in.

๐Ÿชต Fanette was on wood chip delivery duty with 5 or 6 barrow runs to cover some of the ground around the new shed base, with some help from the local cats ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›๏ธ. The new shed is due to be put together later next week.

๐ŸŽ Meanwhile Ben was picking up windfall apples from the community orchard before a thorough strim and cut of the overgrown grass. There was time for filling up a bed with manure and compost to cover for the winter too.

Good cake and coffee as usual โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿฐ

Hamza went along to help Withington Civic Society with a village litter pick. Plenty of bags collected!
