Somewhere to grow
If you live in England or Wales (except for inner London) you can make a formal application to your local authority for an allotment. Any group of six adults listed on the electoral role make an application together in writing to their local authority asking for allotment land, the authority has to, by law, provide it. There is no formal rule as to how and when the authority must respond, but they do have to. You can get more information on how to go about getting an allotment from the National Society of Allotment and Leisure Gardeners.
This is the perfect time of year to be planning next summer’s vegetable garden.
