Last Wednesday I saw a skip and decided it needed raiding. Bob was with me, and I think like many people who are with me when I go skip raiding, he was a trifle embarassed. Me, I do it all the time, skip raiding that is, especially when there might be fuel for my woodburner going free. So, I asked permission, and went off to try to liberate some wood...and found quite a bit including a good few lengths of 6x1 tanalised, or it might have been 8x1. Tanalised wood is not much good for burning, which is just as well as Bob immediately nabbed it all for the allotment. Huh.....
Anyway, he put it too good use, and here is the outcome, a nice tool rack and there is even a shelf above it, all the better for being made of free (liberated) wood. Very tidy, with just the very smallest hint of OCD. Here's a pic....nice one Bob.
A social enterprise allotment project supported by Engage UnLtd and Age Concern Dorchester
Welcome
Welcome to the 'Digging for Health' blog, a record of the development of a social enterprise project supported by Engage UnLtd and Age Concern, Dorchester, UK. We have been allocated a community allotment (thanks to the Volunteer Centre, Dorset), which is very overgrown and run down. This blog will provide a history of the development of the allotment, as we return it to a fully functioning and productive resource that aims to not only produce vegetables but also raise social capital (what's social capital?...read the blog!). This blog belongs to Fran Biley. This views expressed here are his, and he takes full responsibility for them. They may not represent the views of the organisations that are mentioned here.
