On The Croft Allotment Plot

Hi I'm Ian,
Welcome to On The Croft

On The Croft is a year-round allotment journey, following the simple, honest growing of fruit and veg through all 12 months of the year. From breaking new ground and preparing beds to harvesting homegrown produce, the channel shares practical tips, real-time progress, successes, and the occasional setback — just like any true allotment plot.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned grower, On The Croft offers down-to-earth advice, seasonal guides, and plenty of inspiration for making the most of your own little patch. Join the journey as the plot changes with the seasons — one seed, one project, and one harvest at a time.

So, grab your gardening gloves, roll up your sleeves, and let’s grow together.

Let's settle this! I need your help deciding what to call my poly-structure (It's not a Polycrub or a greenhouse!). Drop your best suggestion below! Also, can anyone advise me on the best time to prune that Damson Tree?

Once you've got your name down on the Allotment waiting list what do you

Everyone gets to see your 1st visit to the new allotment plot in full

before that, so look out for the next episode which might give you some
ideas into what you can do!
