there so now you know all about me as to farming i only have an allotment but love agriculture as we are surrounded by fields and farms.

:p:-3:D:wah:

My hubby would love an allotment ! There aren't any available that are reasonably near to where we live though grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. When we used to live in the country, in a small village at the edge of the Vale of Belvoir, our garden was big enough to grow some veg - potatoes, cauliflower, brussels, beans, radishes, lettuces. We both miss the good taste of 'home growns' particularly the potatoes!

Greetings. Do tell what is an allotment? Is that like an acerage here, a large plot of land with a dwelling on it and room for the deer and antelope to roam?

Do enjoy your stay here and have fun.

Cheers

Ohhhhh ok how very cool. I have a black thumb but like that others are into the garden experience.

Ok here we have back yards and people plant gardens. I have 3/4 of my back yard converted to a parking area... and the rest is grass. Neither grows anything ahahahaha

a allotment is like a plot of land you rent from the council .

its like a field divided up into say plots 20 ft long and 10 ft wide thats an allotment.

you rent this plot from the council and grow your own veg or flowers on it some keep chickens or horses or pigs.

some allotments are council and some private allotment holders associations usually attached to the local working mens club in northern coal mining towns.

thats north of watford away from those southern nancies.

p.s apologies to any southerners reading this
