🌿 Welcome to Allotmentjoy – my little slice of garden paradise here in the UK!
I’m Elaine, and I look after three half-sized allotment plots where I grow everything from fresh fruits and seasonal veggies to stunning flowers – and yes, even giant vegetables!
This channel is all about sharing the joy of gardening and the simple pleasures that come with it. You'll find videos packed with practical tips, planting inspiration, and even some homegrown cooking! From pantry staples to easy, wholesome recipes – there’s something here for everyone, whether you’re a green-fingered pro or just starting out.
For me, the allotment is more than a garden – it’s a place to unwind, have fun, and reconnect with nature. That’s what Allotmentjoy is all about, and I’d love for you to come along for the journey.
🌱 Let’s grow something amazing together!

#GOGC2526 Playing with pipecleaners. Instead of using florists wire, I opted for something different this year. It's not my idea. I could have gone rainbow colours but opted for gardening green. The Ailsae onions are on the three leaf stage now. Although they can support themselves, they are getting taller. 😁👍🧅🧅🧅

So there I was in my local supermarket and stumbled across this tiny and perfectly formed cauliflower. They are asking £1.19 for it. Hmmmm 😆 🤦♀️

That's the last of the tomatoes out of the garden. I didn't want to wait any longer and the chances they would ripen on the vine were slim. Now they car ripen off at home. Not more tomatoes lol. 🍅🍅🍅😆👍
