I have one plot and still give some produce away, I actually think when you give you receive far more. This year I had grown far too many courgettes, pumpkins and squashes for my needs, I gave a load away to fellow plotholders. As a result I have benefitted greatly with offer to water when away, fruit bushes and seedlings appearing on the plot all manner of items in fact.
The discussion is all the wrong way around, if there is a need for plots then the councils should endeavour to find suitable sites and provide them. I would like to see the landscaped gardens in front of council offices turned into plots. It has been proven time and time again that good diet and exercise saves the council money in NHS bills, more allotments provides both.
