Hi all. New to allotment life and taking over an overgrown old plot. Any advice on how to get this from over grown to productive plot most welcome! It's on a sloped full sun but windy spot in Leeds. The right of the plot I think has Raspberries and some other fruit and an apple tree which is next to the other plots plum tree.

Part 2 shows what you should expect after week one. we are looking a at not forcing growth but changing the system from root growth 💪 to light making the shoots green and fat, not pale and leggy! how are yours coming along? 👀

Having a hat that fits , is fit for its purpose and suits your style sometimes means having more than one hat. Keeping you dry and warm, shade from the sun and heat, also something for a special occasion or with a logo to show affiliations. Lots of different hats. The same with gardening, different styles and technical approaches to differing context, not just one way. Being flexible and finding what fits is the key to success.

Do permaculture consultants really believe in fair share and are hipsters giving the movement a bad image? ( If this comment sparks interest, I'll perhaps introduce more context).

This was back in 2024, I will be back here soon to add willow hurdles to shape the beds more naturally and permanently. More to come from this garden Enjoy the video 😁
