What a cool video. I love watching shows like Wartime Farm and Victorian Farm, they give a look at what growing was like in the UK. It is done on a real farm called the Acton Estate. Thanks for sharing everyone 👍, have a fab week, Ali 🌞🥵🇨🇦

That was fantastic!! Loved the stories and the Ariel view of your allotment site. It's a good feeling to know the allotment growers of the past. I appreciate my Grandad for my passion for growing. He had a plot at the back of his house in north London, and my memories I cherish the most were of his allotment 😊 Thank you for the trip down memory lane ❤

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Thankyou for your lovely comments. I bet your Grandad had some wonderful stories too!❤

[@Hwye2182]

Absolutely love the videos! You guys are brilliant, and have given me some brilliant ideas ( love the wottle style mini fence with the bamboo!) keep making the videos! Watched almost all of them daily. Can’t wait to get growing!

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

In France we don’t have as many allotments as you do in England. I’m lucky to have a garden and I love watching videos of how people care for their allotments. It’s so inspiring. But sometimes it seems that the rules are so strict ! I watched a video where the person had to have a crop within the three following months of getting his allotment…I wonder how you manage to do that if you get your allotment in December !

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

@@valm7192 some rules are crazy. At our site you have to have 65 per cent of our plot cultivated but they do give you a bit of slack if you are new! Thankyou for watching! Tilly

[@kristalvalley]

This should be a series!

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Hopefully we’ll do more soon! ☺️

[@Plotonthehill]

Fabulous content, love this channel x

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm so much for watching and for your lovely comment ☺️

[@galiam.6676]

Unfortunately, the plots where we are in Spain have become overflowing with people from other countries and customs, who come only to party and drink a lot of alcohol, with what that entails, shouting, urine, fights, garbage dumps... and there are very few of us locals who plant our own vegetables. Here there is not so much culture of self-management of food because there is a lot of variety in the markets that is very cheap and people do not feel like working for something that they get easily. What a shame.😥

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

@@galiam.6676 That sounds awful especially if you want to grow and are an avid gardener. How some people act is beyond me. Thankyou so much for watching. Tilly ❤️

[@helenstewart2085]

Thank you have too stop cleaning, we have a -5 degree frost this morning.

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

@@helenstewart2085 Oh my! Thats a chilly night ahead. Do try to keep warm! Tysm for watching ☺️

[@edzakete.3700]

Our site was also farms, I think I inherited a damson plum tree.

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

It’s amazing to think of the history on our site! We hope the plum tree is serving you well, and TY for watching ☺️
