Got my plot 10 days ago.
Happy with the progress so far...
Slashed weeds from head height to ground height with a sickle
Sourced some pallets, built a very rough-and-ready 2-bay compost bin and piled it full of the cleared stuff
Bartered for a giant bit of black plastic to cover a third of the plot and let the weeds die underneath
Pruned the hedge overhanging the plot, a bit - need to do much more still
Bought some timber and built 3 raised beds
Harvested some of the preexisting rhubarb and made a top notch crumble
All very satisfying. Obvs still a long way to go
