We get many postings about the cost etc. of allotments.
I thought members would be interested in this item about Malta's first
allotment scheme.
A hundred Euro a year, but support, lectures etc. Interesting ideas.

Dried Universal Soil Talc which we are calling DUST



Last time I went to Malta I thought they had concreted over all the land or
turned it into rubbish dumps!

Only €100 per year and free manure too, that is so cheap.

Manure costs me only £12 per lead delivered (one year old well rotted) but
the normal charge for an allotment here is £13.50 per sq Rod (OAPs get it at
50%). So a normal 10 rod allotment here is £135.00 per year plus manure,
water is provided but no hoses are allowed.
