Tuesday 8th May
Unfortunately there is little progress to report. The wettest April on record has left our plot very wet and soggy. Wellies quickly become caked in mud and difficult to move. We have done little more than litter picking over the last three weeks. Still at least the newly sown grass and recently planted hedge will not dry out!

The second work party of the 2012 season followed on from the hedge planting the previous weekend. The first two hours were spent watering all the saplings planted a week ago. We then started preparation for sowing more wild flower meadow at the eastern end: trimming the ground where it was hummocky and raking the soil that has been exposed to the frost over the winter to create a fine tilth. All we need now is more showery weather in which to sow the seed.
