Im so pleased for you getting an allotment, ive actually put my name down fir a few where i live, im no 11 on one, no 6 on another and no 8 on another one. Apparently around my area I could be waiting years as covid made everyone interested in getting an allotment. Hopefully a miracle might happen and I get one, although I have no idea what im doing ha! Thankyou for doing these videos!

Thank you. I was 5th on my list and we emailed to see where we were and the said 6 plots were coming, just got lucky hopefully this will happen for you soon with you being on that many different plots. It learning as you go pick a patch do it and move onto the next

good idea with sectioning off the bits to be tidied, makes it less daunting. Enjoyed watching this, thank you.

Thanks was really daunting seeing how much work needed doing. So thought it best one bit at a time. Know a few people who have tried to do it all at once and got overwhelmed. Glad you enjoyed thanks

You are the lucky one on having an allotment. Use it wisely and you can grow a lot of food on this beautiful but challenging plot. If all is not done this year, you can do it the next year 😀I think first you should make a design how you would like to have everything on your allotment and see what you can make off palets etc. For all the rubbish, on the side of the panels, why not make some boxes with the stones, put all the rubbish in and once full, you put stones on it and then you can store some pots on it. Do you now what the plot was before ? If not, make some raised beds to be sure. Also, do not hesitate to ask for some free materials and plants, also some free cuttings. Succes

Slowly but surely. Just needs some green now. ☘️

Your channel was suggested for me and I took a look. It's exciting to see the potential of your allotment, and I look forward to watching you and your family transform it into a productive space. Watching from Syracuse, New York, USA. ☺

Wow thank you. Hopefully we can turn it into a very productive space. Thank you for joining the journey

👍👍👍

As you clear your allotment are you going to make beds and start to plant. I had a new small allotment in January nothing like your size, but a have been clearing and planting at the same time, as that helps to keep you motivated. Good luck 👍
