We got our plot in July, if this photo works it should show my daughter helping us do some clearing. It hadn't been used for about 8 yrs.
We cleared a small patch and quickly put in some runner beans, just to keep us interested.
Then slowly took off all the turf and made a big heap at one end and have covered it.
Next we started digging and pulling out as many weeds as we could.
If this picture works I will post another of how it looks now.
