Allotments 4 All

Hi everyone. Just found out the fantastic news that we got to the top of the waiting list and now have an allotment.  Really looking forward to getting started but also a bit daunted about what to do first.

Very impressed by this website, within 5 minutes of logging on I've found lots of useful information including posts on my favourite topic of soup making. In fact I've just finished making some with pumpkins from my friend's allotment - hopefully next year they'll be my very own.

i'm sure I'll be asking lots of questions of you all in the near future!!

 ;D

Dont let the initial hard work put you off :o   Stick in there.
You'll reap the rewards over the next year.

Well done! :D

Welcome aboard Amy... we made 1 1/2 Gallons of soup today from a monster Sweet Potato!

Oh dear saddad -- clearly past my bedtime ... just read 'soup' as 'soap'  ::)

Thanks for all the encouragement, picking up the key at the end of the week so going to spend the week researching what to do. (and probably making more soup!)

welcome to the site, amy, lots of lovely people on this site with good advice and seeds to swap

don't ever let anyone tell you you're doing wrong by not doing it their way, find your own ways

and enjoy every minute. :D

:-* ;D ;D  Hi Amy and welcome you will find a lot of friendly, helpful people on this site as they all say stick with it and do a bit at a time, so you keep looking back on what you have done as you progress never let the weeds beat you, happy digging.

Hi and welcome Amy! I'm a newbie too and look forward to learning lots of things from this fab site! Sending you lots of luck for your first year, don't forget to post us some piccies of before and after so we can see what you've achieved! Good luck! kitten x
