Showtime is the 3rd September so have a look at the schedule and think about what you can enter. We would like as many entries as possible: it is your show. More details can be found on the Annual Show page.
The renumbering of the plots has been started and is a work in progress. If you can spare some time on a Monday, Tuesday, Friday or Saturday Harry would very much appreciate it: please let a committee member know.
The problem with wet plots is being looked into. Some problems can be improved by digging your plot and using raised beds. There will be some advice issued for wet plots in the near future.
The toilet by the Hut has now been serviced and cleaned and is in use again.
Community payback team started on site on Monday 8th August. The plan Is that they clear lanes, trim hedges, clear un-let plots and other jobs that we need doing. They are supervised at all times and will be on site 2 days a week initially.
We need to map asbestos and Japanese knotweed on site. If you have either on your plot please will you let a committee member know. We will pass this information onto the council and hopefully they will sort both problems.
We have requested a large skip from the Council and will let everyone know, if we are successful, when it will be on site. The skip will be for plot rubbish only and will be policed.
