Happy Plottersversary to us!

A year ago today we signed on the dotted line and got our keys for plot 28B.  So far I have enjoyed every-single-moment.
It has been tricky to juggle at times, especially as our youngest had only just turned one when the plot became available, a fact that almost made us turn it down! But we made it work and it is now a huge part of family life.
Most of my evenings over the last year have been spent studying veg growing, reading gardening books and blogs and being engrossed in vlogs. My facebook page is now 50% allotment groups and I can talk all day about the importance of saving seeds and herritage varieties. Be warned, taking on an allotment is a life changing event!
We have meet some great people over the last 12 months and feel really embraced by the allotment community.
There are certainly jobs I thought we would have completed by now, still sitting on the to do list and financially it has been a little eye watering, be we wouldn't change a thing. Feeling very proud of our little patch of heaven.
