That seems quite expensive - the allotment charge, not the manure.
There is no allotment land available in my village. Except mine. The
Parish Council have moaned at me for years to let them lease it to provide
plots that are continually being asked for, but all I would get is around
£10-15/year for each plot.


Set up a private allotment site and charge more.


As it cost me a horrible amount of money (half the cost of my house at the
time) I said no.

I am using it myself to grow veggies for the first time with my brother. He
hasn't much experience, whereas I have, and he is very sensitive to the
slightest hint of criticism - which is advice.
Whether it will work if he continues to get annoyed with me when I suggest a
better way, I don't know.
