    Hi all, I'm new to sight and looking for a plot at the moment, I understand the waiting list are never ending so I'm not holding out.
    Any way, your little plot on the web is great and ill happily stay here for a while:-)
    Regards Kevin

    Hi Kevin and welcome!! Do you have a garden to console yourself with while you wait for your name to come top of the allotment waiting list?

      Hi nutty, yes I do, three sides but ones a drive, the back I work from and the side has just been newly lawned for my baby boy. The leader of the opposition says no greenhouse :-)

              Not so much the leader of the opposition as the Ruling Party
              You may have to think laterally - and create space! Grow up fences and walls, in pots and boxes in any odd corner, give baby a slalom course of raised beds to crawl around.....

                  There are several Grapes on here with plots in Leeds. Maybe they'll be able to suggest some sites with shorter waiting lists.

                      I'm on oakwood lane allotments which is other side of Leeds to you but we don't have a large waiting list. PM me if you want to know more. I also have contact details for council and self managed sites. :-)

                        Hi Kevin, welcome to the vine. Start the babe off early with growing their own, You can say it's educational
                        When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
                        If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
