Covid certainly has a lot to answer for that’s for sure but I can honestly say that it was a blessing in disguise for me, after finding myself on Furlough with my job. It gave me an opportunity to join a wonderful community, work outdoors and put me on the road to growing my own produce and making wonderful friends too. It was my first time growing or tending an allotment and certainly was a baptism of fire, one that I’ve become to love and relish.
As an offshoot of Kingsley Transition Initiative, Kingsley Allotment Society was formed in 2009 to help people in the community grow their own fruit & vegetables locally. This is a small privately owned plot which we rent from a local farmer, with guidelines set by local planning permission.
We currently have 21 plots which include 14 full size (22m x 11m) and 7 half plots 11m x 5.5m).
I first took on a half plot but found myself looking after the plots either side too and was offered a further half plot and turned it into a fruit and flower bed, growing my own flowers for my family and friends, nothing better than not having to pay £40-50 for a bouquet but lovingly growing your own and watching them bloom.
