Hullo - lotties are usually 10 rods, for the oldest ones, which is
10mx25m - 250sqm. What are you cooking, new plots? ;o)
Will soon need a mortgage to buy veg! And supermarket stuff is cr*p.
I'm single, so I think a lottie would be too big for my needs. I'm
trying to find someone to share.............if I can get one!


Depends on the rules of your allotment group but if you're allowed to,
perhaps you can sell what you don't use yourself, or you could give
it to neighbours and so forth.....


I've been thinking along those lines. Circulate neighbours with what I'm
growing. Orders in Friday, delivered fresh Saturday. LOL


Sounds mutually beneficial to me.
