Making Room for Something BIG at the allotment! 💦 Allotment VLOG #32

Today I make a start on an exciting job which I've been meaning to do all winter, collect a whole lot more water in a self-sufficient way!
I also make a good dent with the spring manure mulching, divide some plants and plant cabbages that are well over due planting.

I can't wait to set-up the IBC tank, despite being a bit daunted at the moment!!

A big thanks for watching, liking, commenting and subscribing, see you soon! 💚
