We've got an Allotment! (Again)

 So I received a call to say my time on the allotment waiting list was at an end! I was so excited because although we have raised beds in the garden, I was limited in space for what I wanted to grow. So I'm so happy to be able to grow more things in the Spring. 

However, let's be real. My health is very flexible, so the thought of not being able to keep up did cross my mind. However, I think setting realistic goals is vital. Mr B did give me side eye when I told him my wonderful news, but he's known me long enough to know that if I set my heart on something, I get it done. 

It's the end of the growing season, so we'll be preparing the soil and planning! 


Thanks for coming along with me!

Clearing Up: Day One

This was what we started with as a reminder: There was all sorts of debris on the plot including a bath. Overgrown bushes & weeds. It's not all bad though, wild raspberries are growing at the back of the plot.  The growing season is more or less over so we'll use this time to clear up the land & revitalise it in time for sowing season.  We managed to clear an eighth of the plot today. DH & I took turns in digging it over & clearing stuff off.  E had fun digging random holes!  We are just going to take it steady. I like that we can see progress already!

And So It Begins!

I signed up for an allotment plot yesterday! I've always been keen to grow our own food but previously I dabbled in pallet gardening & herbs. Needless to say, this is a huge undertaking. I'm going to be documenting our journey on this blog. It'll mostly be photo based.  Stay tuned for our allotment tales!

Better late than never!

Hi all,  I’ve decided to Resurrect our very old blog. This used to be our “Allotment Tales” blog and I’ve decided to use it to blog about our Grow Your Own journey. Mostly because i need to get my writing mojo back. I’m so burnt out presently and gardening brings me such a lot of joy and creativity that i just want to share it all with you!  So stay tuned! And if you want to follow our day to day adventures in the garden, you can follow me on instagram  .
