The field has now been ploughed!

After six weeks of almost constant rain we finally had a day of sun and grabbed our chance to plough the field. It has come up really well with a nice crumbly clay loam exposed - quite a heavy soil certainly but much better than we had feared. The next step, within the next few days, will be to run over it with a cultivator. It will then be divided into individual plots before the end of the year.
