Allotment Life: One Year of Plot 4!


Momma P took on her very own allotment just over a year ago and she has been working away at it, slowly transforming it into her own space. She has built all of the raised beds from scratch, laid weed mesh and shifted barrow loads of bark chippings. We laid a path together but she dug out all the compost and levelled it off herself. Harvest-wise, she has had potatoes, beans, peas, leeks, chard, nasturtium, patty pan, courgette, marrow, pumpkins, tomatoes, peppers, apples, red cabbage, sprouts, quinoa (!), and hopefully soon, aubergines.

I took this picture back in November 2018:
