Plastic Cloches

Today we put a cloche over the seed bed in the allotment. The cloche is made of clear plastic, which lets in sunlight. The sunlight warms up the soil. The cloche also stops the birds eating the seeds.
I went to Lou Farrow's café and had cheeseburger, chips, and a cup of tea. I had a nice day.

Not doing much...

We didn't do much today. We went and emptied the scraps onto the compost, then Tayo washed out the scrap bin. I went to talk to Andrea and Matthew, the staff who work at the allotment, then we went to lunch - cheeseburger and chips and a cup of tea.

Oxeye Daisies

We planted seeds in pots  today - sweet peppers and oxeye daisies. Sarah who runs the group showed us how to do it.

Thyme

To get a better idea of what herbs and vegetables we could plant in the allotment, we went to the vegetable  section  at Tesco. We now have a  good  idea of what's available. We want to try and develop the herb part of the allotment a little more, amongst other things. 

supermarket

My group went to the  supermarket today with Sue and Chantal  to  look at  vegetables. We  looked   at   broccoli,  tomatoes and  pumpkins.

flge day

Today we had a flag raising event for the Can Do Project, who have been working with Bede over the last few months to create four seasonal themed flags ( Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter), which will hang outside in Southwark Park. They look fantastic.

  

Christmas

Christmas was good, but it finished too quickly, because I really enjoyed it and was sorry to see it end. The whole family came over. It was a nice relaxed, enjoyable time. I really like to party.
