Vlog #21 - Made a wire weeder hoe for £2!! (Week on the farm)

Week on the farm...
Something different this week, a shorter daily vlog from the farm!
Follow my exciting journey as I move from allotmenteer to commercial market gardening! My new market garden on the outskirts of Chelmsford should provide local people, an organic locally grown alternative to supermarket vegetables through farmers markets and a CSA veg box service.
Located 10 minutes from Chelmsford City centre, The Essex Allotment Farm is a four-season market garden producing high quality produce, through intensive small scale farming.
The vision is to see organic, local, sustainable produce readily available to everyone in and around Essex.

Way cool Alex (yep hose clamps) my hubby took the three pronged weeding hand tool I broke ☹️ and put it on a long pole worked great and much better on the old back 😂😂 I may need to get him to craft one of these too. As always stay safe and stay gardening 🧑‍🌾🇨🇦✌️🍆🥬☮️🌶🥕
