Report written by Laura Barrett
We went back to Holgate Allotments to finish scrubbing the decking as it was too icy last week. We trialled washing up liquid and and bicarbonate of soda but decided the washing up liquid was more effective and found a full water but to rinse it off. We managed to clear all the bits that were iced on last time so it looked much better and was less slippy by the time we had finished.
With the help of Goodgym we have already created a lovely community orchard garden and reclaimed an overgrown allotment space to create starter beds for people new to allotmenting. We want to continue to improve Holgate Allotments to bring more of the plots back to life and make it easier for new gardeners to get growing.
