Where did Summer go?

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...

An Eventful Afternoon

2 years ago by Katie

The jobs on my to do list have been the same for a few weeks now and the monthly jobs tend to just roll over onto the next month making the lists even bigger... Time has been limited lately and as you all know the allotment has been put on the back burner whil...

A Surprise Harvest

2 years ago by Katie

I popped up the allotment yesterday evening after work to do a little bit of weeding as the weeds always seem to grow quicker than the crops! I did however, get a little distracted when I started picking my very first cut flowers from the plot... It al...

Broad beans and Flowers

2 years ago by Katie

Even though the allotment isn't at it's best this year I have fallen in love with one particular area and that is the flower patch. Colours are starting to show and everytime I walk up to my plot I have a smile on my face as I spot a new flower in bloom. The s...

A few little jobs…

2 years ago by Katie

m starting to think Summer is going to pass us by in a blink of an eye... it's already very nearly June and we've just finished selling at our 5th garden show this year (3rd in a row!) and we are a little knackered to say the least. On the way to Kent I spotte...

The allotment never fails to cheer me up and after a very hectic weekend and the next 4 weekends looking near enough the same I decided to head up to plot 15c for a bit of garden therapy. And by garden therapy I mean sitting on the shed step for half an hour l...

A Little Springtime Harvest

I absolutely love this time of year; the trees are full of blossom, flowers are blooming and the allotment is starting to fill up again. I love the excitement and anticipation of the year ahead with the extra bonus of harvesting crops which were planted the ye...

It’s Officially Tulip Season

2 years ago by Katie

I fell in love with tulips 3 years ago when I first decided to plant up my trough with the little Spring bulbs. Since then it's been one of the things I most look forward to seeing on plot 15c and this year they just so happen to be blooming a few weeks earlie...

Worth the Wait

2 years ago by Katie

Plot 15c is very slowly getting ready for the growing year ahead with only one exception... the purple sprouting broccoli. It's been happily growing away since sowing the seeds a year ago and it's the last remaining crop on the allotment. I've been harv...

Flower Sprouts for Supper

2 years ago by Katie

My rain soaked allotment trip on Sunday was not only productive but I managed to come home with some delicious homegrown goodies for our Sunday roast. The flower sprouts have done brilliantly this year and there are still 3 stalks left to harvest, all full to ...

Winter Harvests

I've had such a beautiful weekend full of a few of my favourites things: Allotmenting, antique shopping and strolling round garden centres (with lots of tea in between!) all it was missing was a particular Welsh man... On Saturday I treated myself to a bit ...
