Garden Plans > 2012: alllotment part A: hut & bottom 3 plots

About this Garden Plan

Allotment (rroughly 22ft x 109ft) was divided into 5 "food4wealth" plots to create microclimates to minimise watering, weeding and digging. Each plot can support a family of 4 all year round in vegetables. As I juice, and want to grow seeds for sprouting, I am experimenting with how much I need to grow. One friend is taking a plot, another 2 stips, so we will see how much each of us needs for different life styles. I am also using one plot as a fruit4wealth site, and sharing plots with others interested in the same approach. I found the SFG calculator useful to calculate quanties of plants/ seeds etc although I will mix them up rather than planting in squares....
