Allotments, once a quiet corner of life, have blossomed into something of a treasure. So sought-after that waiting lists now wind longer than a garden path in spring. 
In this charming and practical guide, John Harrison shares gentle wisdom on how to bring yourself closer to your own patch of earth, with tips to help you rise up the list and, once there, to make it flourish. From the first clearing of brambles to the dreamy plotting of what to plant where, he shows how to coax abundance from the soil. You’ll find guidance on raising beds and building compost heaps that hum with life, along with thoughtful instructions for growing the finest fruits and vegetables, season after season.
