I have included the ESC (European Solidarity Corps) and the veg patch because they all happen here but the part that I will expand upon is the potato extension because this the project that soil4life inspired in me. Here in the south east of England (especially in the eastern part where we are) we have very little rainfall and it is particularly a problem in the growing season, May, June and July. Also the soil on this particular patch is very poor, containing very little clay or organic matter the local weeds tend to grow in the top 30mm of soil and finish their growing in June as the soil dries out or be very deep rooted. So this is a bit of a demonstration of what can be done in challenging conditions or using marginal land like we may have to do in the future....
