3. Repetition
These strong metal cloches were given to us when a friend gave up their plot and are great for protecting seedlings from pigeons. Laid side by side they make a satisfyingly even pattern.
15. Broken bench
The common area at the allotment has this decrepit old bench and lots of chairs as well as a newly built barbecue area that any plot holder can use. The bench is decidedly rickety and has lost it's seats but serves as a collection point for spare plants, pots or other its and pieces that we may not be able to use but other plot-holders might have a use for.
17. A sail. Revisiting the windmill painting for this one.
18. Something that should be found in pairs
This pigeon seems to have lost it's companions from earlier in the year so I think it counts as should be in a pair. He conveniently came around this morning before the rains set in.
Substitute B Fresh local produce for 1. An outdoor clock
Spoilt for choice this year but we have a wonderful crop of butternuts & uchiki kuri squashes that I couldn't resist sharing - all now hardening off in the kitchen.
Hope you have enjoyed the photos and may be inspired to take part in any future hunts
Oh that poor pigeon ... & how nice is that growing all that fresh produce... thanks for joining in with SPSH - you had some wonderful finds throughout the search.
ReplyDeleteHappily about an hour later he had company after all! Thank you again for hosting the hunt.
DeleteYou really were spoilt for choice for fresh local produce, you can't beat something you have grown yourself can you? This is such a fun project to do, I love keeping an eye out for random photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debs, J has worked so hard all summer keeping everything going - I'm really lucky. I think I've enjoyed seeing the photos everyone has shared as part of the hunt even more than finding my own
