mattsaze's Springfield garden

Garden Type: Allotment | Sun: Partial Sun | Soil: Don't Know I'm Organic!

A new allotment, the fence for the old allotments was extended by a further 10 metres thus creating new space for new allotments. It’s shared by friends who look after it together.
The soil is pretty good, a lot of old leaf mold has built up and is fine in most places, a bit of clay in others. As it was previously just grass and weeds everything we put in has grown like crazy.
