Raised bed

September 2021

Old landscape fabric, irrigation pipes and route systems have been removed and the site is ready to be cultivated. To date, we have removed 26 one tonne bags of green waste.

Due to the overall condition of the site, the best course of action is to use raised beds. This will allow for the plants and vegetables to be grown in fresh nutritious soil and thus produce a better yield of crops.
