A very proud Autumnal harvest

2 years ago by Katie
I love Autumn, the crispness in the air, the thick woolly jumpers and heart warming homemade food to name but a few of my favourite things. This year I'm welcoming the season with what has to be one of my proudest moments on plot 15c, the squash harvest... ...

Tidy shed, tidy mind

2 years ago by Katie
My poor little purple potting shed hasn't had much use this Summer and I long for those days when I could potter about the allotment and head inside to pop the kettle on where I would sit and enjoy the peaceful view. Alas life has just been too hectic and the ...

Autumn is Coming

2 years ago by Katie
Does anyone else feel that chill in the air and notice those few leaves falling from the trees already? Autumn is well and truly coming and I for one can't wait. This Summer has been so hectic and I'm looking forward to winding down a bit and spending some muc...

Rhubarb and Ginger Jam

2 years ago by Katie
It's no secret that I love rhubarb so when my friendly neighbour told me she didn't like rhubarb and offered me some from her plot I jumped at the chance. It's getting to that time now when you need to stop picking your rhubarb to allow the crowns to gather st...

Hot on the Plot!

2 years ago by Katie
We've had the wettest August on record and then BAM... Summer returns with a bang! This bank holiday weekend has been amazing but boy has it been hot. My parents, brother, sister in law and little nephew were all heading to Swanage on a camping trip and I offe...

Blackcurrant Cake

2 years ago by Katie
What do you do when you only have a handful of blackcurrants? Make a cake of course! My blackcurrant harvest was a tad rubbish this year, I was too late in harvesting them and unfortunately most of my crop were either over ripe or had ended up on the gr...

A Local Adventure

2 years ago by Katie
Charles was off carting straw this afternoon so I made my own plans to go explore a local garden called Dyffryn Fernant. I picked up a leaflet a while back and made a mental note to go and visit when I had some spare time, seeing as I had a few hours on my own...

Never give up trying!

2 years ago by Katie
I'll admit now that the allotment has been neglected the past 2 years, I haven't been spending as much time as I used to up there since falling in love but I guess that's just life right? That plus the huge work load this year has just been immense with all th...

2 years ago by Katie
The holidays have started here with my parents off to France for 10 days and I'm currently back in Wales again having arrived on Tuesday. Even though the holidays have started Summer seems to have run away, the weather has been horrendous the past few days and...

Foraging for Cherry Plums

2 years ago by Katie
3 years ago I picked a bumper harvest of cherry plums from some trees in the village, there's about 5 trees within 10 metres of each other nestled by some garages and they are laden with these beautiful mini plums. That was the year I made plum cordial, plum j...
