Hello, newbie allotment man here.
« on: November 25, 2007, 17:15 »
hi
I am Mick, come from Chatham in Kent. My family and I have just taken a plot in a local allotments. It has taken 3 yrs of waiting. Cannot wait to get stuck in. It is a lovely plot that is still producing. So hoping not too much work needed. Just a tidy up and some planning. Looking forward to getting involved in the forum.

Here are a couple of pics of the plot.

Hi and welcome! Lucky you to get such a garden.

Do you know what's growing amongst the mixed brassica plants? Hard to tell from this picture.

Welcome!
I'm a newbie too, so if I give you any advice feel free to ignore it!
Don't tell me that big shed with the white doors is yours too, I'll get very jealous. :wink:

Welcome Mick. Looks like you have also got quite a little community of plot neighbours there. It's one thing we back-garden allotmenteers miss out on. :wink:
