Well established Sweetcorn seedlings finally went in today... been so behind with these and had to keep potting on. Hopefully it gave them a good start! #allotment #allotmentplot #allotmentlife #sweetcorn #seedlings #gyo #growingfromseed #urbanallotment #urbangardening #urbangardenersrepublic #allotmentsofinstagram #nottingham #nottinghamallotment #sunnysunday #organicgardening #organicvegetables #allotmenteering

Our plot - circa April 17, we have 8 raised beds now and most have vegetables planted. We planned our plot with North to South facing raised beds, to give the plants optimum sunshine......Has anyone else planned their beds in the same way? This is a screen shot from Google Earth. I wonder how often they update the pics... can’t wait to see the next capture in time! #allotmentsofinstagram #allotment #allotmentplot #halfplot #nottinghamallotment #googleearth #allotmentplanning #urbanallotment #urbangardenersrepublic (at Beeston, Nottinghamshire)

My happy corner 🌱 This is where our greenhouse is and a place I can happily spend hours - raising seedlings, potting on and shuffling plants around in the hardening off process. I have a growing herb garden, 3 small fruit trees and various pots in the border that give us flexibility and a bit of height... My happy corner isn’t a huge space and perhaps nothing special to most, but for us it’s a dream come true to have such a lovely garden that we can call our own. ✌🏻 #gardening #urbangardenersrepublic #herbgarden #allotmentlife #gardeningforhealth #happyplace #smallgardenspaces #growingfromseed #greenhouse #greenfingers #lifegoal #worklifebalance (at Beeston, Nottinghamshire)

Looking forward to one of these later! I can’t believe how easy and delicious Rhubarb Gin is. I’ve guessed the measurements of gin : sugar : rhubarb. Does anyone have a tried and tested recipe? #rhubarbgin #rhubarbrecipes #homemadegin #makeyourown #savemoneylivebetter (at Beeston, Nottinghamshire)

Spinach, Beetroot and Chard planted tonight. We’ve got our second set on the go too, so we should have a steady supply. #allotment #allotmentlife #allotmentlove #vegetablegarden #growyourown #gyo #growingfromseed #growingvegetables #raisedbeds #organicgardening #organicvegetables #organicallotment #urbangardening #urbanallotment #nottingham #successionalplanting #beetroot #chard #spinach #selfsufficient (at Beeston, Nottinghamshire)

Broad beans are flowering nicely 🌸 We’ve planted a few less this year and have provided them with support and a wind break. We also need to make sure we pick them young as last years grew too big. #allotment #allotmentlife #allotmentlove #urbanallotment #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growingvegetables #gyo #growingfromseed #broadbeans #legumes (at Beeston, Nottinghamshire)

Onion bed doing well. Swipe to see the sticks we used to deter pigeons from stealing the onion sets.
