Sarah’s Allotment journey
Hi welcome to my new channel . I got an allotment 2 years ago having never really grown anything before the first two years were a bit hit and miss . Heading into year 3 I have decided to share with you my journey along the way . I kill things , I over water I forget to water . I make things I break things .. let’s see if I can get anything right my wish list and items I have used www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/F7OQU10TYTYE?ref_=wl_share

I absolutely love your allotment. You've put your heart and soul into it, and it shows. So beautiful. Great job!!!!
@@elizabethvongremp118 thank you that’s kind
@sarahsallotmentjourney I'm a California gardener. Unfortunately, our soil is very rocky, and our weather is warm and dry. I wish my garden was as green and healthy as yours.
Fantastic video, where do you get all these amazing ideas, how wonderful it is to see your garden coming together Sarah, thanks again for sharing your video
@@gigiwilson9124 I just think what can I do next lol
@@sarahsallotmentjourney well it's pretty amazing and clever
Deadhead your Dianthus then they will keep on flowering, mine have been excellent
@@dolly4891 ok will do thanks
Well done you! Brilliant cane sorting system ❤
@@TGardner-oq4vv thank you
I love love love the view you have from your garden seat - absolutely stunning -- also love how your garden bench has come together - well done
@@viridiangreen8259 thanks
If you lay your rubarb leaves on soil they will surpress the weeds as they have an acid in them. Its all looking really great well done Sarah.
@@fairyacorn4854 oh right I have been composting them . Thanks
Fabulous Sarah, Ali 🌞🇨🇦
@@myrustygarden thank you as always
Absolutely love your videos. They just don't ever seem long enough. Lol!
@@patriciaburton8521 lol sorry
The allotment is really looking great!
@@skp8738 thanks
Oh Sarah, I just love what you've done with your plot. So pretty and so homely. Love all your ideas- fabulous. My plot is really boring with no special place to sit and no flwers nearby- although i do have flower beds at the bottom of the plot, but not where i sit. I have added arches with climbing beans, climbing spinach and pumpkins/squashes. I would love some bunting and a nice colourful rug- they make so much difference. I think you've had more rain than me- not had any decent rain in weeks now, -my seeds are reluctant show, I have been watering them as the soil is so dry. Happy gardening 🙂
@@bewoodford2807 a place to sit is essential otherwise all you will do there is work and not sit and enjoy it
@@sarahsallotmentjourney I have a place to sit- it just needs prettyfying!
Your allotment is beautiful Sarah.
@@lovelyskull3483 thank you
Sarah, another ingenious storage solution. Absolutely love it! If ever I'm stranded on a desert island, I hope it's with you. You could build us a shelter using 3 sticks and a leaf 😂😂
@@lindajones3015 lol I think we may need a little more
Love to see your allotment ❤ Congratulations on your rhubarb harvest🎉 my mom in law (she's originally from Hounslow) also love rhubarb. She came to South Africa in the 40s. Still going at 95 and in good health ❤❤
@@poppydaniels9855 wow anazing
Another brilliant inspiring video . Great ideas xx
@@Karen-ip2jz thank you
Those Dianthis flowers are nice. I like planting them in my flower beds as well. Great idea for those pieces. Rhubarb crumble sounds yummy. New rug looks great too. I bet your allotment is really flourishing now.
@@brandonbursick9575 it is thank fully
Love the new outdoor rug, bright colors are perfect until the flowers come in! That workbench is amazing, I like your storage ideas.
@@Nicole-coliebrobro thanks so kind
Those pieces from your dad's garage are from an antique sewing machine. They were holding the side drawers in place. You definitely found a clever way of repurposing them. I have planted dianthus flowers for the first time and they have an amazing sweet scent. You win first prize for the design of your gardening table. Thank you for sharing.
@@bettyfreckles yes your right about the sewing machine table someone else said it and that made me remember we had a couple of those that he repurposed thanks
Looking so nice!
@@kathy3320 thanks
I agree your pole holder is absolutely perfect. I love your creative fixes in your allotment, so much fun! I never thought about stapling my outdoor carpet. The dogs roll around on it and mess it up several times a day. I'm going to definitely try stapling the edges. Thank you!
@@kathyv3909 just used a few pegs it does the job
Some day they'll come in handy, oh yes, I have that coded into my DNA. I try my best to be an organized hoarder at least. The little pink flowers are dianthas, they're in the carnation family. Your allotment is coming right along!
@@cjcarver6290 they have flowered well
The pink flowers you planted are like mini carnations
@@susanamann1806 yes they are
I think you planted Brussels sprouts and broccoli in that bed
@@susanamann1806 thanks
Hi Sarah. Love the new potting bench that you made. I just saw something that you might want to consider. You might want to put something on the ends of the bamboo pole so that you won’t accidentally poke your eyes. A pool noodle cut up or some kind of ball. I am sure you can come up with something creative. You are inspiring!
@@debbiestickney9626 great ideas
Pretty rug ,looks nice. It is coming together.
@@susanamann1806 thanks
I love that you are not afraid to try something new. The bench looks great you built its very accommodating for your items to be stored. Love the new carpet and colors. Everything looks so beautiful Sarah. The plants are growing really well. Have a wonderful weekend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
@@susancousins8766 thank you it’s all growing now
YOUR ALLOTMENT IS LOOKING SO GOOD, EVERYTHING GROWING SO WELL
@@lindastowars7346 thank you
Rhubarb pie!..so good.. enjoyed watching as always..
@@TreesAndLittleFlowers thank youb
Your plot is really looking pretty
@@colleenfoster997 thanks
perfect solution for the bamboo stakes
@@FoodThymeAndGarden thank you
That stake holder was a great idea. Clever you!! The garden is really coming along. The new mat looks great with the cushion on your seat. 🙂
@@maggie_oshea thanks it’s super comfy now
Great harvest of the rubarb
@@Lorraine4305 thank you it really went crazy this year
Thank you for your video, always enjoy our time….allotment looks fabulous!
@@evie6304 thanks for watching
I hope the new flowering plant likes shade. Our sunflowers are huge
@@dishmurphy6539 sunflowers did not do well in the cold wet weather we had
Love your ingenuity!
@@craftadventureswithsusanto808 thank you
Hi Sarah The new rug brightens up your seating area. How do you charge up your drills? The rhubarb is awesome💞🍻🍩☕
@@77sun222 batteries are charged at home
Perfect place to sit with a cuppa! Bird feeder looks great with matching top.
@@tanithmessenger3581 thank you I did film it but sometimes bits have to get cut out or the videi goes on too long
@@sarahsallotmentjourney that's ok 😊 you film so much as it is. Hope Mick doing well. xx
@@tanithmessenger3581 yes he is thanks x
@@sarahsallotmentjourney Glad to hear that x
That went by so fast~good episode.
@@kcoy7988 sorry lol thanks
It’s looking really great
@@suewaite9747 thank you
Your allotment is coming along very nicely Sarah🌺
@@deloradeabel8487 thanks
What is the old carpet made of? Can you use it to cover beds to kill weeds?
@@AnnaAnna-uc2ff probably plastic . I have weed membrane for that much cheaper
your allotment coming along great. maybe if you have few more those hooks they could be used, fastened on to your new table, hanging storage can be useful or hanging plant like herb maybe. just an idea if you got any more
@@stevekenilworth I will keep my eyes open in the garage
@@sarahsallotmentjourney just an idea, maybe useful having extra hanging storage or nice plant hanging of the side your new table. your new table and storage has came out great
Hi Sarah. What a great idea to put the frames at the end of the potting table to house the canes. Love your storage ideas and what you've made. The signs are good made out of slate. I love rhubarb crumble, well done on your harvest. Roll on Monday for another video. Thanks for sharing xxx
@@gaynor3976 thanks so much
Love your videos Sarah… being Canadian do you receive my likes and messages?
@@sandralovegrove2805 I can see this thanks
Hi Sarah, I love that you are repurposing things and giving them use as something else 😊 your allotment is coming along nicely, congrats on your first harvest of Rhubarb, I have a huge amount of them behind my barn. Just love Rhubarb ❤️ looking forward to your next video xx
@@julieg1270 I’m jealous that you have a barn that sounds super fancy . Thanks
Thanks!
@@AnnaAnna-uc2ff thank you
It will be so nice with you, what great ideas. Have you ever made rhubarb chutney? Very good for grilling.
@@mickansj334 no I haven’t great idea though
@@sarahsallotmentjourney There will be a few small jars and friends like it very much. Try it. You don't need that many rhubarb.🤩
I like the color of your new rug. The allotment is beautiful
@@janloewen3404 thanks I just thought it needed brightening up a bit
Hi Sarah those look like they belong to an antique seeing machine drawers. Looking good
@@kimbucci5615 oh yes we did have a couple that were repurposed I bet your right there we’ll done you
Cant wait to see the allotment when the flowers come up
@@suesmith9202 can’t wait to show you
Love your little seating area. Saw Mick sitting there in one video.
@@lindamartinez2896 yes it’s very rare mick comes to the plot he is not an allotment person
