The Telegraph reported recently that allotments are being sold off for development at an alarming rate, even though demand for plots continues to be strong.

A lot has been said about the joys of growing your own vegetables and fruit, not to mention the importance of understanding where your food comes from, and it is worrying to think that our chances of having our own plot to cultivate are reducing.

Allotments are a great way of getting started with growing your own, particularly for people with little or no garden at home.

From exercise and fresh air to the “feel-good” factor of growing and nurturing, plants keep us connected with nature and this is something which shouldn’t be underestimated in our increasingly busy and often very indoors lives.

In our industry, we enable people to be close to plants even when indoors and this has been proven to make us feel and actually be healthier, but it is vital that the generations coming up understand and appreciate the importance of plants in our lives.

An interest in horticulture often comes from early exposure to gardening and allotments play a key role in engaging young people. It may one day even take them from seeing gardening as a hobby to taking it up as a career.

And it has never been more vital that we get more young people in our industry. Only last May, the RHS reported a huge skills gap in the horticultural industry, with more than 70% of businesses in the industry saying they cannot find applicants in the UK with the necessary skills for job vacancies.

Answer:

First thoughts should probably focus on the size and placement of the garden. Parents shouldn’t feel intimidated and as if they need to till and cultivate a plot in their yard in order to raise a garden with their children.  A patio or set of front steps that can accommodate a few plastic pots is more than enough to begin.

By starting with just a few planters, families keep costs low was they explore gardening. They also separate themselves from some of the complications of planting directly into the ground. For example, chilly early season temperatures can be controlled by taking the pots inside on nights when frost threatens.

In the same way, water can be managed. Many seeds have been destroyed by wet springs that cause rot. A pot can be brought under an overhang to avoid too much water and many have drainage mechanisms that prevent overwatering.

Another option is a raised bed that provides more space and gives older children the area needed to practice laying out a garden, but still in a smaller, controlled area. If parents are concerned about the cost of building this type of garden or are unsure of how to construct such a space, there are excellent workarounds, such as using a sandbox that children have outgrown, that provide the same type of larger, but still contained space.

Parents and children shouldn’t be afraid to let their creativity flow in picking a container. Anything with open space and the ability to poke holes in the bottom for drainage would work quite well for a container garden.
