Learn how to get the most out of your allotment by reading information on each plant and the tools and equipment you might need.
Welcome to our guide to growing fruit and vegetables!
Here is our guide on how to grow fruit and vegetables in the UK or a similar northern climate. We have a number of different pages designed to help you to bring your allotment to it's full potential. We have had allotments for 12 years and enjoy a bountiful harvest every year. It can require a fair amount of work to get started but as the years pass the allotment becomes easier to work as you get rid of the weeds and get used to the cycle.
Firstly, we have a general guide to getting started planting on the allotment. This includes seed planting, composting, plant rotation, general duties and information about bugs.
