I went to my allotment this morning to water, and it had already been done for me! How good is that!
I run a small community allotment site right by the Kennet and Avon canal on Canal and River Trust land with just seven plots. It was derelict land this time last year and mine is currently the only plot being worked, but as the site begins to look more like an allotment than a rocky wasteland I'm hopeful that I'll be able to attract other allotmenteers to join me. The site is right next to the canal by some formal moorings and the plan is also to build a community group to adopt the length of canal and maintain the moorings and canal lock and a large area of what is now rather neglected scrub but which could become an attractive formal garden and shrubbery.
Anyroad, someone posted the notice that you can see "Canal allotment - please feel free to water using black bucket" - and they even provided the bucket - and what's even better, when I turned up this morning to water, a moored boater had already watered my beans and potatoes!
