Yes we have found instructions for how to build your own polytunnel and are having a go.
Having hired a digger to clear a sunny spot of land we set about getting the various components and tools needed to get the job done.

Then it was time for some hard work....
Mean while, at the other end of the allotment, a second team worked on building a new compost bin. The team had to develop a drainage system to divert a spring away from the compost bins and onto planting beds. The area was flattened then it was on with hammering and fixing to create a structure out of recycles pallets.
And there was more activity elsewhere.....
Younger Lotti members got creating making clay signs to put around the allotment. They also added to their ever growing tree house (or should I say fort?!)
And we put some time into developing our wildlife pond.
A productive and rewarding day for all involved.
