On Saturday 22nd February 2014, my lovely lady signed a tenancy agreement for an Allotment site in Ealing, West London.
The following is the story of our growing 'Adventures in Suburbia'!!
The plot measures 410 poles or 20ft x 50ft approx. It has an existing shed & store cupboard - the land was used up until the end of 2013, so 'weeds' are not in great abundance.
There is a raised bed on the plot containing some young herbs & two well established Rosemary bushes. A bed of Strawberries and several crowns of rhubarb remain in-situ.
A bed of hedge screening is present with evidence of previously laid trenches and plot markings.
After discussing the options for the best use and highest productivity of the land we decided upon a 'Crop Rotation' system to be managed over a mininum of 4 years.
What i then did was to remark the plots and re designate potential growing areas.
