Well the issue with using pesticides etc is that it’s only the person who uses the pesticides that affect other people. Someone growing organically would have no negative effect on the plot next door, yet pesticides potentially would.

Just got my first allotment.... Second visit and my neighbour had seized the authorised path between our plots. Im going to seize 3 metres south... its shit land with worse light but I have room to expand. Allotments are not full of relaxed hippies... they are highly competitive and you see peoples true colours.... I have seen more waste dumping on allotments than I have seen anywhere in my life. I shit you not ... I used to go to anarchist festivals and they had better discipline than allotments. Screw "the environment" .... the people on my allotment take all their waste to the nearest border fence and dump it there. There our developing nations with better waste policies.

Jealousy.......I'd put that first . All my life I dreamed of leaving the hustle and bustle of living in the city . I found a little row of cottages out in the countryside, one came up for sale .....put my offer in and the nightmare began. At first my neighbor was friendly and helpful but when I purchased a plot of land next to the cottages it all changed . I worked for 12 months on the land ....greenhouse.....vegetable beds ...flower beds ......new fencing. Then the nice neighbor turned nasty ...... Long story short .......it got that bad I moved back to the city ! He liked to beat his dog when he had a bad day and thought it was ok ? I moved because the crazy bastard had guns and his character was like the loon at Whitehaven that went on a shooting spree.......... So ......be careful out there. Don't upset people by being yourself 😤😜🖕

Traditional vs progressive especially when both camps are on the committee. The traditionalists: neatly dug rows of leeks and turnips in bare soil, likely to be men way over 50 have done it the way their post war dads and grandad did it. Dig, dig, dig and there's a chemical for everything. Progressives: wavy paths of quinoa and wildlife friendly gardens, more diverse group of people . Includes permaculture which mimics nature rich with plants but can look wild and unkempt to the uninitiated.
