Overview:
Take control of your growing year with a practical, two-book collection designed for both beginners and devoted allotment keepers. Allotment Month By Month provides a clear, month-by-month roadmap for a year-round harvest, drawing on Alan Buckingham’s bestselling guidance. It includes in-depth crop planners for more than 60 herbs, fruit, and vegetables—potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, strawberries, and apples—so you know when to sow, grow, and pick. Monthly alerts help you head off common pests and diseases before they disrupt your harvest, turning guesswork into reliable results. Paired with it is RHS Allotment Handbook & Planner, written by the Royal Horticultural Society’s fruit-and-veg experts. This companion volume offers lifestyle-changing advice for sustaining a steady supply of healthy crops, with tried-and-tested varieties and practical guidance on what to grow, how to grow it, and where to plant it. Together, these two guides deliver a complete seasonal toolkit that makes year-round gardening feel achievable, rewarding, and almost effortless.
What Makes This Collection Special:
Two authoritative voices, two complementary approaches, and one coherent gardening journey. Buckingham’s month-by-month format turns planning into a habit, removing guesswork and helping you anticipate the right windows for sowing, tending, and harvesting. The RHS handbook adds a practical, action-oriented layer—clear guidance on site layout, bed rotation, and selecting varieties designed to perform in UK conditions. The result is a cohesive reading path: learn the year’s rhythm with Buckingham, then translate it into concrete steps with RHS’s tested advice. This set is perfect for anyone who wants more than a single-season harvest—families seeking dependable home-grown produce, plot owners building an ongoing edible garden, or gifting-minded buyers wanting a thoughtful, long-lasting present for Gardeners’ World fans. It also makes a thoughtful gift for gardeners starting ambitious long-term projects, offering both inspiration and a practical plan to deliver real results.
