Hi, new arrival here.
I have had an allotment for a few years but am thinking of giving it up. When I took it over it was covered in shoulder high weeds, which I managed to get under some kind of control. It's become a bit of a chore to go there though, and the mare's tail and couch grass (not to mention the brambles from next door's plot) mean it's always an uphill struggle. At home I have a couple of Veggie Pods (which I love) in the garden and two beds for veg, more beds will soon be under construction, so I will see how things go this year and might just have a small kitchen garden next year.
The picture is of my first very successful pumpkin harvest. I'm pretty obsessed with growing the things. :-)
