Squadrons of stunning butterflies continue to circle our site. This was the latest I spotted visiting the Sedum on my plot.
Any other offerings caught on camera?

These two visited the Sedums on my plot today – along with dozens of bees, including some honey bees I am pleased to say. Can anyone tell me what they are? Are they both the same species?
Our Allotment Association at Garthdee Field has been short-listed for a grant from the Skipton Building Society. The final award is by public vote. We hope to use the grant to improve facilities in our Community Garden and so bring the benefits of plotting to youngsters and adults with disabilities and health issues. If you could follow this link and vote for GFAA we’d be very grateful.

Our latest Community Sunday was another great success. We were a small but select team this time but everyone certainly got torn into the late season tasks that needed doing.
It was certainly hot going today, but Gordon (on the left) and Grant (on the right) helped Stuart and I make great progress clearing the dumped materials and tidying up the wood chips at the top of the site. Thanks go to both for a job well done
Summer 2016 has been a memorable one for GFAA and full of colours, but today the blooms on site seemed to suggest it was sliding passed a wee bit. For more photos visit the Photos Tab above and click on Summer Colours 2016.
