Green Fingers on SWVG Allotment
At first we dug and planted. Then we got a new shed. And finally we harvested!
The SWVG allotment produced over 100kg of fruit and veg this summer! This included red currants and raspberries, dwarf beans, courgettes, potatoes and tomatoes.
We also managed to grow chillies, peppers, leeks, lettuces, various squashes and pumpkins, including a giant 17kg beast.
Some of the produce went to those who helped on the allotment and the rest went to the SWVG hostel and was distributed amongst the food bags given out at AMC.
