Very inspiring! Happy New Year. 🎉
It would be nice if cities were obligated to keep a percentage of their territory for community gardening. Great interview! Amazing garden! Watching in the snow, so totally jealous! ;)
8 minutes in I hear Huw's voice in the background... It dawns on me I'm not on Spicy Moustache's Channel! Great video!
With the snow on the ground this video was a welcome burst of colour☺️I am totally in awe of Alessandro. Thank you for introducing me to his channel over the summer. I've been following him ever since.

Also for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere who are in the middle of our summer growing period.
So inspired - what brilliant approach
Alessandro, I absolutely love this intensive style of planting. I can't believe how much you have achieved in such a short time. So productive. You are right that we need these green spaces in urban environments. I have just watched a video of Monty Don in Japan, talking about how this is encouraged there. Thank you for sharing your new allotment - it's beautiful! 🌼
I love the combination of vegetables and flowers. It looks beautiful and is so healthy.
He so right. Everyone uses a garden, people and wildlife. It’s so vital to make sure these spaces are also in the city ❤
Love it- I’ve been gardening for 10 months now, and my goal this upcoming season is to grow a massive amount of flowers. I’m dedicating 600sqft to natives + flowers. I also have marigold/nasturtiums in our beds as well.

Wow your local insect population will love you!
It's Spicy Moustache! Such a joyful human!
Thank you for exposing us to this abundance of enthusiasm and excitement!
What a lovely attitude towards wildlife and gardening 😍
Very exciting to see what Spicy has done in such a short period of time.
Thats an amazing development for 6months. Will checkout his channel too. Hopefully the council don't close the allotment to build on. When will they learn urban areas need greenspaces for balance - for people as well as flora and fauna.

Huw, loved this so much I watched it twice! Great job filming & letting him do his thing.
You’re clearly such a kind person.
Oh, hey! I just yesterday watched the amazing Charles Dowding -video about melons that Alessandro shot& edited! 😍😍😍😍 This garden is amazing, he truly is a man of many talents!
Wow, 6 months ago. That's amazing. So nice to know there's still a space for wildlife there.
I amazed at how good this is. Glad to see someone showing others what a little effort and gratitude for what we have can produce--if people have a little vision. ❤
What a lovely interview. Informative, inspiring, and chill.😊
Ich mag Allessandros Videos sehr. Sie sind so inspirierend und eine Freude für das Auge. ❤
Well done, it looks so beautiful and there is so much food, great 😊
I've followed Alessandro for a while now - he grows an amazing amount of food in a small space - love him!
Thought i was going nuts! I watched this while making the dinner Sunday and wanted to watch it again and couldn't find it! Thanks for reuploading 😊
Can really recommend small poly tunnel, mine is 9 x 5 mainly because that's what I could scrounge from my shed but also the garden is not that big. It has been quite productive given we didn't plant anything until June and it is still going in it's own little way in January. Looking forward to April/May to get things going again 🙂
Absolutely lushhhhh!! Yes, yes and YES! 🎉 Well done lad ❤
Alessandro is inspirational with both his growing and cooking. Thank you for this beautiful video.
What an amazing garden with such a huge variety of food growing there I am so envious.
Love this collab! Two of my favorite gardeners who constantly inspire me. Cheers from Texas.
You’ve created the most lovely garden! Looking forward to more videos!
Love following you on your path. Keep saving habitat.
Alessandro is great!
Your garden very beautiful❤❤❤❤
Beautiful and inspiring

His allotment is as productive as his garden 👍🏼
1st time here. Love what you have done with your garden. Great work!
Gorgeous!
Fantástico 🙏🏻🌱🌻🌷☀️... Muy inspirador. Saludos cordiales desde bugalagrande valle del cauca colombia 🇨🇴.
WOW! My garden is about 6 months old... no way near this wonder
Ah this is just the style of allotment I love. Im curious about digging dowm and the risk of creating little ponds but then Im on clay and we have had a lot a lot of rain here.
Much love from Vienna, Austria ❤️🙏❤️
Nasturtiums actually can be a great addition to ferments, as well ! Flowers or leaves ( the seed pods too ?). Beautiful garden, hello from western Wisconsin, USA !
hope he can keep the land as is and the animals can coexist with a few people
Hey huw, how about a follow up on that edible rose garden? Maybe pruning tips etc.. Keep up the good work marra

This is wierd - I watched this yesterday! But I did enjoy.
I miss my garden and summertime 😢
This is so inspiring. I really need to find a way to maximise my space. I love pumpkins and squash, so would love to see how I can grow vertical safely! Any ideas?!

there is a video from 2021 in Huw‘s „Inspiring Gardens“ Playlist called „Beautiful No Dig Permaculture Kitchen Garden“, that features a squash-structure with a counterweight to help balance the whole thing. There is also an interesting looking bean rack in there that you might or might not be able to adapt to squashes.

My squash loved to grow on my fences! It just takes a soft sling to support the heavier ones.
Love 🧡
Music at the beginning is a tiny bit loud over the speaking, just a friendly bit of feedback. Love this. By the way!
Dream vegetable garden, 6 months and has it all. I see you planted yellow chrysanthemums among them. I bought seeds but for some reason, when I planted them, they didn't germinate. Can you share a little about how to grow yellow chrysanthemums and how to plant seeds?
What did you say you inoculated the straw with? I couldn’t quite hear. Love your allotment! 💚

0:05 whats the name of just this sort of flower? It's a Marguerite, right but can it be Red Baron or some other sort?
Really beautiful and inspirational 😊❤. What did you say you do with the straw please??? X thank you.

Inoculate it with Winecap mushrooms! It gives a second harvest in the same space and boosts soil health.
If there's anyone around with chickens/poultry, they can eat the extra Zucchini. Do they allow chickens in the London city limits/area ?
❤
So the sliced plants were edited out.
Helo❤❤❤❤❤
It's disappointing that captions are not available; makes it difficult for me to access the video.
