Weed Need You - 36th Sheffield Beavers 

On Monday 17th June 2013, the Sheffield 36th Beavers (and their adult assistants) came  down to Lotti and had a brilliant blitz on the weeds, They cleared  weeds from raised beds  in the Rivelin, Don, Sheaf and Wyming Brook areas of Lotti and even managed to do the fruit  cage area as  well. 
Everyone did an absolutely superb job in clearing the weeds away - filling their buckets time after time and emptying them into the compost bins.
This has made a huge difference to us and will let us carry on with planting out the vegetables  for a bumper crop later in  the year - including sweetcorn, broccoli, squash, cabbage and pumpkins.
Lots of people came down and worked  really hard - many thanks to everybody!
