This is not really an allotment available thread, but please bear with me!

I took on 4 plots a couple of years ago when demand was low, with the view of creating a biodynamic garden, however, since then 2 of my co-workers on the plot have had to pull out for one reason or another.

What I'm looking for is a willing co-worker, who is interested in sharing the knowledge I have and the produce we grow and also, of course, the work load!

On site at the moment we have several fruit trees, a small greenhouse with toms and melons, lots of potatoes, peas, beans, cabbage, onions and leeks, sweetcorn, etc.


Send me a pm if you are interested. The allotment is between Erdington and Sutton Coldfield

Hi

If you need a co-worker to work the 4 plots; presumably you can just use 2 and give the others up?

Then effectively let the council find a new person to rent them.

That's an option, but not attractive as there are different fruit trees on each plot and not ones I want to give up. Also, as these plots are slightly apart from other, chemical wielding plotholders, it makes sense to keep them as a whole project. Biodynamic gardening is then easier.

Please note I am not asking for any money input
