Tatnam Organic Patch

Another busy workday down the patch, with a good turnout, and plenty of sun.

Busy preparing the site for upcoming school visits, planting potatoes, and redigging the new beds -bindweed has a nasty habit of re-sprouting from the tinyest root, so you have to dig deep, and pick out all the bits carefully to minimise the regrowth.

Brendan has a new bike, dutch variety, so he had to park it in the middle of the site, looking very fetching near the daffodils. And Gary was either busy making tea, or coming to/from making tea. Again.

A few of us had to disappear, to go and litterpick at Turners Field. Maybe our experience on TOP will help to inspire and support a community allotment/garden on that site.

Steph Bradley dropped in on Transition Poole during her around Britain stroll. She is walking between Transtion initiatives, gathering and sharing experiences and progress. She is also taking gifts from one place to the next. We gave her a hazel sapling, and received, from Transition Purbeck a cherry wood turned spoon.
