I've got an allotment, and I'm loving it. Of course everything will either go rotten and die, or spiral out of control, or I'll inadvertently grow Triffids.
This is it, when I first got it. I have what you can see leading up to the white-painted house (the house with the green doors is someone else's plot). I should have what's on the left side of the path also, but spaces are short and they're only giving out half-plots now.
This was a couple of days later:
This was it the other day:
I never thought I'd be into this kind of thing, but I find it quite therapeutic. I'm really looking forward to seeing if I can make it work. I have potatoes, onions, garlic, 3 types of lettuce, corn, and radish in there right now. I've got sugar snap peas germinating on my windowsill waiting to go in. I'm going to plant some strawberries at the back, and I'm going to buy a couple of trees too.
The only downside is near the house its a fucking mess, loads of gravel and shit. That'll take a while to clear.
