In Mid-March a large volunteer team came to work with growing connections on clearing for and constructing a woodland pathway and steps. Whilst clearing, the volunteers were good enough to collect the large ammounts of lovly, crumbly, dark organic matter produced by years of dead leaves. Dispite the millions of weed seeds which will also be in it, this will make an ideal compost for planting in the forest garden area.
A Willow archway and low willow fence were planted at the bottom of the garden area. Old brick toilet taken apart and cold frames started using old sash windows. Two windows are fine, one needs some of the wood repairing before we use it. Cold frames must be made higher, mulched with black plastic and made mouse proof.
