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.

Fence posts

I was about to put up fence posts to support the trellis at the front of the allotment so we can get some height and have climbing courgettes or something like that, and one of the Age Concern Trustees called in with two bags of muck for us, squeezed into the back of her Mazda sports car. The car was a bit smelly in the heat, she said.

Then Bob (not Christian, but Bob House) came along to do some watering (it's still very dry), and I roped him into helping me put up the posts. They are not quite straight, but I tried....here's a pic:
