Coventry Garden construction...

Well the weather was a huge improvement over last year. Not a drop of precipitation and definitely no snow. There was an amazing turnout, and by the time I lazily rolled in about an hour after the construction began, it looked as though it would soon be over.

Everything looked to be organised and operating like clockwork. Trailers and tents were set up with saws positioned strategically for cutting, the drills were whirring, and the sawdust flying in the wind. But most importantly and as per usual, everyone was enjoying themselves with big grins on their faces.

For some it was the first time meeting, for others it was a reunion from last years gardening. It was clear that this determined group were going to have a great day. A day that will surely be just the beginning of a  great growing season and very bright future. I'm looking forward to following Coventry's progress this year.

Tomorrow the plots will be put into position and filled with soil, the garden will really start to take shape. Pictures will follow shortly, there are bound to be some great ones.
