Last weekend I finally got my new allotment.
Inverness had a definate lack of plots (pretty much none) so a group of interested individuals got together and put alot of work in to secure a site, get funding and set up fencing etc and this weeked it all came together and we now have an allotment site.

After years of only dipping my feet in growing a few veggies in pots my 15 by 10 m plot looks a little intimidating but there is already a community growing up around it. Sheds are already going up and fruit bushes and tatties are going in.

The site was an area of grass with some very neglected trees (now looking much happier) with the ubiquitous buckfast bottles scattered through and now it is a totally different place and should keep growing and evolving as people get into the swing of it.

Well done to the Allotments for Inverness Gang!!
