School Plots July 2011

Dear folk of the allotments and friends
 
This month is very very special! Why you may ask.... well, it is because there are going to be two (yes, 2!) plot folk communal work days!
 
Rabbits are being a bit of a pest, so we are having a crack down on the north fence (not on the bunnies) and various other fun things.
 
Whens, whats and wheres
 
Sunday 15th May - this Sunday, 11am onwards
Tasks are to:
- Patch up the north fence
- Define boundaries of plots and paths
- Put up seed screening on west fence
 
Sunday 29th May
- Details coming soon.

As you will see, these wee jobs are for everyone's benefit (except the rabbits), so please come along to one or both of the working days.
 
Cheerio th'noo

Plot swap opportunity

A plot has become available at Dreelside and this will first be offered to current plot holders who wish to swap before being opened to the waiting list. Please notify our secretary before the 21^st January if you are interested in swapping. If more than two plot holders apply we will take the person that registered as a member of ADAA first. The plot is a full size plot at the far west of the site (near to the dreel entrance gate) and could be taken on as a full or two half plots. Cheers Ali

Rabbits

We have lots of rabbits living along the Dreel and some, if not all, are visiting the allotments for a good feed up. During the snow many tiny footprints were seen all over the plots and lots of veggies have been lost.

To rectify this we have managed to raise some funds from the Anstruther Common Good fund to purchase some rabbit proof fencing but we need everyones help to erect this.

The rabbit proof fence will surround the whole site and hopefully eliminate the problem

Its a big job and we need everyone to lend a hand on the following days

Work days

29^th, 30^th January 10.00 to 12pm and 1pm to 3pm

5^th and 6th February 10.00 to 12pm and 1pm to 3pm

Thanks Ali
