Progress on the digging 24th April 1011(retrospective)

The first thing we did when we got the plot is to dig all the weeds out. Indeed even if the field has been ploughed it was a necessary step because of the perennial weeds in the area. The main weeds is broad dock leaves, which has deep taproots, a bit like dandelion but in bigger. And the whole root has to be removed, or the little buggers will regenerate...

The photo above shows where we are in terms of digging. about 2/3 down. I even started to draw bed 1, 2 and 3. Nothing is planted yet, that was the next step.
