It's been a mixed half term, full of exciting but also sad events. Karin had to say goodbye to her beautiful German Shepherd Tilly, leaving an empty feeling house. Vicky has spent her birthday present; a microscope course at the Soil Ecology Laboratory.

Vicky shares an update of Soil Squad's news after a busy week of preparations for the plot, including building a re-used and repurposed version of Mr Dowding's compost bay shelter and getting ready for the website's photo shoot!Happy listening peeps.

Vicky has finally decided on the lay out of her plot; making two long beds to the back, giving her lots of efficient growing space.
