  • Alessandro, I absolutely love this intensive style of planting. I can't believe how much you have achieved in such a short time. So productive. You are right that we need these green spaces in urban environments. I have just watched a video of Monty Don in Japan, talking about how this is encouraged there. Thank you for sharing your new allotment - it's beautiful! 🌼

  • Thats an amazing development for 6months. Will checkout his channel too. Hopefully the council don't close the allotment to build on. When will they learn urban areas need greenspaces for balance - for people as well as flora and fauna.

  • Can really recommend small poly tunnel, mine is 9 x 5 mainly because that's what I could scrounge from my shed but also the garden is not that big. It has been quite productive given we didn't plant anything until June and it is still going in it's own little way in January. Looking forward to April/May to get things going again 🙂

    • there is a video from 2021 in Huw‘s „Inspiring Gardens“ Playlist called „Beautiful No Dig Permaculture Kitchen Garden“, that features a squash-structure with a counterweight to help balance the whole thing. There is also an interesting looking bean rack in there that you might or might not be able to adapt to squashes.
