Postscript to Allotments UK

On that really great programme "You and Yours" (BBCRadio4)today there was an interesting article on Manchester Community Allotments Project (see http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/youandyours/items/02/2009_20_fri.shtml) which led me on to check out their website for other interesting bits...
There are photos on line to follow their progress.

This one is about schools putting aside a little piece of land to give children hands on experience at growing and then eating...

and this item is interesting about how councils are pursuing people when there allotments remain uncultivated when and how "... local authorities can meet the challenge of more than eighty thousand people waiting for an allotment."
