Finishing Touches

2 years ago by Katie
It's no secret that I love my shed, to me it's not just 4 wooden walls but it's my absolute little haven in an otherwise crazy world. I just love escaping up to the allotment for a few minutes to sit in the shed with a cup of tea and enjoy the view. So I thoug...

Planting Garlic in a Container

2 years ago by Katie
I've had the allotment for 4 years now and I've attempted to grow garlic twice in the past, both times it failed miserably and part of me blames the heavy clay soil we have here in the South. The Winters have been wet, damp and grey and garlic hates to be sat ...

Spring Bulb Planting

2 years ago by Katie
I love this time of year, there's so much hope and excitement in the air as I'm busy planning next years growing season. For me there's nothing more exciting than planting out Spring bulbs when the rest of the allotment is starting to die back and this Spring ...

The Allotment Kitchen is Back!

2 years ago by Katie
Some of you may have noticed that special video was uploaded last week and I'm pleased to say that the allotment kitchen is officially back open for business! I've missed filming all the videos over on the Youtube channel but the series I was missing the most ...

One last attempt at Garlic

2 years ago by Katie
Everyone has that one crop that they've tried endlessly to grow but for some strange reason it just doesn't go to plan and mine just so happens to be garlic. I absolutely love garlic and have always had that dream to grow my own but after failing at it twice I...

Cosmos and Crown Prince

2 years ago by Katie
I know I said I wouldn't be posting about squash again but then I remembered I harvested this little beauty the other week and I forgot to share him with you all! This was my one and only Crown Prince squash harvest and I'm very happy with it. I just adore the...

And the roof is on!

2 years ago by Katie
It's been laying in the back garden against the greenhouse for the past 2 years but this Sunday was the day the galvanised roofing finally made it onto the shed! I've been looking forward to this day for what seems like ages now and it was so hard to contain m...

Chard Glorious Chard

2 years ago by Katie
The UK woke up to the first frosts of the year this week, flowers were left lifeless and seedlings destroyed but one crop that continues to thrive is good old swiss chard. I know I rave about this leafy green a lot but I just adore it, it's helping to bring co...

The last of the squash

2 years ago by Katie
It's the 1st of November today and I for one can't quite believe where the year has gone. Even though I love this season and a tiny part of me is getting excited for Christmas, I can't help but long for Summer and those long day's up the allotment. It's gettin...

Happy Halloween 2018

2 years ago by Katie
I'll admit now that we're not huge Halloween party people, I absolutely hate horror films and anything gruesome so the day for me simply revolves around one thing in particular... Pumpkins. For me it's what Autumn is all about and I just love all the different...

A Little Shed Makeover

2 years ago by Katie
It's been a long time coming but Saturday was the day that I gave the inside of the shed a little spruce up. Last year I purchased a Cuprinol tester pot called 'Pure Jasmine' and painted a small square on the wall. Since then it's been covered up by my Land Gi...
