Compost covered ridged potato beds.
The finished 'extras' potato bed with three and a bit ridges covered with compost.

An earthed up row of soil, potatoes underneath.
First potatoes in, actually to the day I did it last year, and same variety, Casablanca which were a great success.

Gemini said A large black crow perches at the very top of a blossoming pear tree, silhouetted against a clear, bright blue sky. The tree is covered in small, white spring blossoms and young green leaves. In the background, an allotment or garden area is visible with wooden structures, fencing, and garden beds. The foreground shows low-growing green plants and a piece of black landscape fabric on the ground.
A close-up, high-angle shot of a single, thick asparagus spear emerging from dark, crumbly garden soil. The tip of the spear is a vibrant purple-pink color, tapering to a point as it pushes through a mound of earth. The surrounding ground is scattered with small pebbles, dried plant debris, and a few tiny green weeds. In the background, a blurred garden bed with green grass and foliage is visible under bright, natural daylight.
A crow was keeping a watchful eye on my plot, and the asparagus is poking up already.

On a slatted wooden deck lie sticks of rhubarb, a few small leeks, and three segments of brussels sprout with small sprouts attached.
Typical April crop. Rhubarb and the dregs of winter.

Looking down at a partially filled wheelbarrow from the top of the mound of compost.
Rather tight entrance to the bin that I can get the big wheelbarrow into
That thing where you've sited a compost bin incorrectly so you can get the wheelbarrow in to it, and end up climbing on top of it to shovel compost into the barrow behind and below it!

Remembered to take my phone to the #allotment today, so here's a snap of yesterday's finished potato bed. Ridged up and covered with compost.
First crop in this year. The broadbeans.

What a lovely morning it’s been at my allotment.
#gardeningtherapy #allotment
Another morning at the #Allotment finishing off mulching the beds with my compost and getting the bins ready for the next season of green waste.
Homemade #Compost isn’t pretty to look at, but it’s so satisfying making.

Yesterday was the first #allotment day of the year. Great to be back. #potatoes in #casablanca #sagitta #marvel #scarecrow first day of digging beds as @katebeermcr.bsky.social ‘s fiancé. I’m a very lucky man. ❤️
Back from the allotment with severe backache and moderate leg ache plus sore arthritic thumbs. Me? Old?
The wind was extremely chilly, but once out of the wind, the sun was pleasant. I kept taking my coat off and then putting it back on!
We picked tulips, daffodils and the first rhubarb of the […]
45 seed potatoes planted involving shifting six large, full barrow loads of #allotment compost around the plot for filling planting holes & mulch. Who says #NoDig #gardening is less work? 🤔🥵
No photos unfortunately because Mr Dopey left his phone on the charger on his bedside table this morning. 😞
Anyway. I'm going to take a flask of tea to the #allotment to potter while listening to #cricket from Hampshire. @allotments
Relax everyone. The onions are in. #gyo #growyourown #allotment #spring
The reddish tip of an asparagus spear, poking out of the ground, surrounded by bark chippings and chunks of soil.
Hugely exciting news from the #allotment yesterday... The first #asparagus tips of the year are showing!
Just a quick trip to the #Allotment this morning to empty some of my compost bins onto my beds and turn over the other piles.

Pea trellis finished. Probably a mistake what with Storm Dave due. Also, knocked another 3 jobs off my list. Not a bad allotmenteering Saturday...

A bundle of leeks, chunky rhubarb and asparagus on a kitchen worksurface.
A spring harvest! The leeks keep going, yet more rhubarb, and the first asparagus! Looking out some more rhubarb recipes… #allotment

Plum blossom and blue sky.

I discovered four beetroot hiding under an overly rampant swiss chard at the allotment this morning.
