creative plotholders Pauline Howley
Sometimes I do quick watercolour paintings on the allotment.
My allotment is on the Clarence Road allotment site in Horsham West Sussex. I’ve had an allotment on and off for about 22 years on this site. A few years ago, I made raised beds which I find much easier to manage than having an open allotment. I grow a mix of vegetables, fruit bushes and wildflowers. I made a flower press and press some of the flowers as well.
Looking for
creative
plotholders
to share their
allotment art!
Perhaps you...
• Have an artistic flair when it
comes to decorating your shed
• Reuse everyday items to
decorate your plot
• Create art using the resources
your allotment provides
• Use your plot or garden for
inspiration
• Or, maybe your plot doubles as
your art studio
YOU are a creative plotholder, and we want to hear from you!
Please tell us a bit about your allotment or garden creativity – and send over a few images for your fellow plotholders to see. You don’t have to write much! 200 – 500 words plus 3-4 large jpg images is perfect.
