 When it's too cold or wet for
gardening, or the allotment is covered in snow, it's time to look at gardening
books and websites. Lots of ideas here and on our links pages
It's the worst winter for decades
but there's lots of gardening work to do indoors. You can order seeds, plan the
season's sowing and growing, read articles and books giving advice on how to
grow things, or you can enjoy the allotment gardeners Facebook -- social
networking about crops and growing -- go down the allotment online at this website.
Or join
this new London
allotment social networking site
You can also do jobs like maintaining
tools. And if the weather improves a bit there's always sheds to be tidied and
painted (as long as it's not too cold or wet), water butts and gutters to set
up, and lots more winter jobs.
