  • Received a group email along with all other allotment tenants asking what plans are / if we're struggling etc as "some allotments aren't looking their best". Feel very attacked.

  • 4 or 5 months! Presuming they'll show some leniency given current situation.

    Was very overgrown when we got keys in Jan/Feb. Dug a lot of ground (but didn't repair the broken door on shed or broken panels on greenhouse). Planted a lot of stuff and was there every other day for a few weeks then things got covid'd so we've been lucky to get to it to water once a week. Haven't been for two weeks or more now. Needs a serious strim and the beds need a weed. At least the rain is making up for things a bit. It's made trickier by having to attend with 3yo who doesn't do patience or careful footing. Stressful experience and frankly we've had better harvests this year from our back patio (potatoes, radish, beet, spinach so far). Allotment has given us some rhubarb from previous tenant and some maggoty radishes. Would love to go on my own early morning and spend the day there. We'll see.
