Gottcha. I don't blame you for snapping up that piece of ground, it looks nice.

Looks great, hope it is as fertile as your other piece of land and serves you well :thumbsup

Is it nearby your other garden plot?

Thanks guys. Yep, it's almost right next to the other plot. The soil looks very good on this one, though it was rotovated as appose to hand weeded, so not quite so good on the weed front. We also got another plot which I planted Nozawana on today, I'll get a pic up soon, It's not quite so good, though to be fair I think were very spoilt here!

We're very lucky to have inherited such good soil, though I think it needs a little correction. How do you deal with it? Raised beds??
Yes, I do lots of raised beds and potted plants. Here is a vegetable bed from last year. It did really well!

They look great! The apple butter sounds very interesting.
