There’s quite a bit going on in the Sheds.
Just before Christmas Staithes Shed had the welcome news from Woodsmith Foundation (formerly Sirius) that the Shed had been awarded £1000 for a new growing project for the local community. It will feature raised beds and a greenhouse on land adjacent to the Shed and if possible also provision for a safe gardening area for accompanied youngsters. A community space to encourage people to “grow together”.
Shedder Malcolm has researched greenhouse designs and at present the intention is to adopt a design by Anna White (USA) adapted to use pallets around the lower perimeter and poly carbonate sheeting covering supported by wood cross frames.

The full design details are in the link below.

Staithes Shed has finished work n the wood store and there are arrangements to better seal the roof lights against persistent drips (keeping Shedders out?).
On the beech
No deck chairs. The UKMSA informed Northern Sheds of planed and regularized planks available from a source near York. At a much discounted price. Between Whitby District Sheds and Norton Shed it was decided to collect 0.5 cu.m. of it. BayThorpe Shed is taking half of it and the rest will be shared by the other 3 Sheds.

Pies & Peas
Jim always pushes to the front for some reason.
Phil liked the pie & peas. He finds it hard to show it.
Another bundle of fun. Malcolm procured the pies from Radfords in Sleights
