- It is that time of year when it is all go at the allotment! We have so many things to do and plant, so we thought we would bring you along. It is overwhelming but so much fun and calming, if a bit hectic at times!
We have a patreon page for anyone wishing to support us.
We also have a Ko-fi account, so if you wanted to support us by buying us a metaphorical cup of coffee it would be greatly appreciated xx

Isn't it exciting when the fruits of your hard work pays off. Getting edibles and flowers home grown...there's nothing like it. Plus the flavour of home grown is so much more nourishing.
A job well done, both of you. Xx😊 🥕 🍅 🍃 🌸
Ah! Cleanup and planting make for sore muscles, but the payoff is sooooo worth it! Very nice video!
Yes we definitely ache!
I so admire those who have the patience and skill to garden. I, however, do not😒 This was very enlightening seeing the different plants and ways you plant and protect them. Kudos to all your hard work!!!👌👌👌
I gave sunflowers seeds to some neighbours children and to a local nursery
I used to have an allotment but had to stop it due to health problems , so I grow my own vegetables and fruit in the garden it tastes better home, my conservatory has different seeds growing ready to plant outside.
So sorry about your health issues glad to know that you are still growing very happy gardening from a random stranger happy gardening Richardx
I enjoyed this so much. Your veggies will be delicious. Thank you and cheers.
Lots of work but well worth it! 🌱🌱
Wow, first to be here. 😊Perfect timing! I love that you’re bringing us a gardening video.
You do allotment gardening the right way. Working with Nature, not lashing it into straight lines with no weeds (wild flowers)
I have orange, lemon, mango and avocado , Apple seeds growing in soil & starting to grow
Thank you, so enjoyable💛🧡🤎
Thank you.
So many plants this year, it's going to be beautiful. Nice work ladies.
For your dandelion you should harvest the leaves before the blooming cycle starts. They'll be more tender and sl less bitter.
You both worked so hard,well done,all that lovely produce to eat later this year.Lovely video,thanks for sharing
Very relaxing to watch you both and listening to the music 🎶 love it 🥰
Fun video! I love this time of the year… everything seems possible! You ladies look like you know what you are doing!! Happy gardening!!💚💚
Looking like a wonderful start
Thank you for another enjoyable vlog. I really enjoy watching you both working together in your allotment. I hope you enjoy the fruits of your labour . Best wishes 😊
beautivul garden anything we grow the deer love to eat. and yes they are known as Ufban Deer
We are finishing up our planting. But in the meantime we caught a mother ground hog and her six babies and we released them down in the woodsy area on the river side. Town is no place for them and they will be happier in their natural habitat. They are notorious garden destroyers. We was able to catch the mother last fall but she managed to destroy what was left of our garden.
Bless your bountiful garden and you!💜👍🏼
We have just hit winter here in New Zealand, and already I’m missing the warm days, longer daylight for gardening. Thank you for bringing me back to that in your video! Always a joy seeing both your channels. Warm wishes from Aotearoa. ❤🇳🇿
Can’t beat food that you’ve grown yourself ladies, you certainly have a good variety, tfs x Julie
happy growing
A pleasant half hour with you wonderful precious girls. Love to see you trying and experimenting as you create your edible craft. Bet you were knackered and slept well after your exertions. Keep well.
We did rather ache haha :)
What a lot of work. I wish I had a small area for gardening but we live in the city
Thank you for making this video. It was great seeing you both again
😍Wow, thank you both for sticking it out in the rain. ☔ You both amaze me. My husband and I planted a new small bed of strawberries. We are elderly but we have to garden.🌼🥒🌶🥕🍆
In New Zealand we're just coming into winter - so lovely to watch your Spring planting ☺ x
Wonderful to see your allotment! It seems really big! I do a lot of veg gardening, too, and that makes it fun to see what you grow. I love Kate's overalls!
Yay!!!! My veggie garden is all in now in middle Georgia, USA 🇺🇸 🍑 except for my sweet potatoes! I know how you feel getting your garden in ✌️🤍 My Egyptian walking onions look just like yours. And my comfrey is blooming.
Such a lot of work but the payoff is worth every soreness and every bit of time spent reaping it. You know it’s chemical free and your love helped it grow.
I can only dream!!
Rather than using weed soup for tomatoes my Dad used to put some nettle leaves in the hole before planting the tomato on top. When the nettles broke down it would fertilise the tomato.
You're getting on so well with Lotty. Its nice to see things growing after the wet winter we've had. Enjoy you broad beans. Remember to take the side shoots out of your tomatoes this year and you'll get bigger toms and not have to hunt for them. Keep digging. xx
That should be a bumper crop ladies, thank you!
Morning glories can easily become a noxious weed if you don’t keep it under control at least in the US. In my 50+ years of gardening I have never seen a carrot fly. We just plant them and let them grow. Thinning and weeding is a hard task with the carrots.
We do not have that problem here but I would be happy for them to spread a bit as they are beautiful :)
Such a lovely vlog - the perfect cozy time to watch with my supper. You are going to have soooo many courgettes! 😆
Nice job such sweet work Mom and daughter ❤
Thank you Ladies, a lovely relaxing video. Strange that with all of that digging you didn't find a single bead 🤣🤣
So fun to watch! You planted so many plants I’ve never heard of before, either because we don’t commonly grow them in the US, or because I live in a place that gets so hot and dry by late July and August. Or because the non-indigenous who first settled this area weren’t from the British Isles (they were primarily Scandinavian and German).
I’ll have to watch again and write down names to look them up! 😁
I’ve certainly never heard of a “red dandelion” - and thank goodness for that. It’s Gigantic!!! 😱 I have a horrible problem keeping dandelions to a minimum, so giant ones might send me over the edge. 🤣
Awesome, i hope everything grows well 👏🙏❤️
I was told to stop carrot fly the plants should be planted close together. I tried it and yes it works, well it has for me at least. Happy gardening ❤
I so miss having a garden and growing my own fruit and veg. Which is why I enjoy watching both your channel and the amazing things you make find and grow thank you so much for taking those that haven't got or cant do such things anymore with you on your adventures and follies x
You ladies have a wonderful garden! I planted a container garden and I am so chuffed, everything came up except the peppers. I will have to reseed those but that is not bad. Only one of my okra seeds sprouted so I'll have to reseed those as well. All in all I'm happy, I will have to post a picture for you to see. I have beans, okra, tomatoes, yellow cucumbers, lettuce, kohlrabi, zucchini and blueberries. Thanks for sharing with us!
Missed you both
I loved this video!! I was not able to plant for our Spring garden this year. But planning and looking forward to next year. There is such a good feeling about putting your hands in the dirt. I pray God blesses your allotments. ❤️🌱
You give me inspiration....thank you....I love your video.♥♥♥
❤
This is a wonderful video. Wish I could've been there to learn from you.
With your green thumbs and work ethic you will have a bountiful harvest that's worth the aches and effort ....looking forward to your next video...Karl from eastern Canada
Really relaxing video story. Good to see more of the two of you. Kate has such lovely hair.
Your allotment is looking amazing!
Gosh beans already!
Broad beans :)
I love your garden and all the things you have planted! wonderfully done! If I may suggest with red dandelion , Try making a bacon dressing with it, you might like it better. I cube boiled eggs and onions and slice mushrooms along with frying the bacon and I use vinegar, honey and a dollop of milk at the end to make the dressing. that's Pennsylvania Dutch style. :)
We will have to try that, everything we did just tasted bitter! :)
Also the older the leaves the more bitter, best picked young and growing in the shade. I use bacon dressing for most wild greens, garlic mustard, field mustard, dock, yellow Dock, Field cress and penny cress, they are called bitter greens or greasy greens, I would love to try wild ramps, haven't found any yet. Do you pick wild mushrooms? They make a leaf ID APP and a Mushroom ID App now, ehh I prefer to learn on my own and take pictures of plants, flowers and herbs.
This was so awesome to watch. I want to have a garden again! Thanks for sharing this 😊 🙌 🙏
I've taken inspiration for my veggie plot from your video. I too love a bargain in the sales,and I've picked up some ruby chard and borlotti beans and a straggly pot of chives all for tge sum of £1.20.
I've no idea what to do with them (except the chives) but every day is a learning day!
Fleur, there is a specific knot that works for tying a tripod. Don't know what it is, but I have seen it. I'm just learning the knot that is used on the clothes line so all I'll have to do is pull on the knot to tighten it. Who knew, huh?
Everything looks so lush. I really like the green table in your pilytunnel.
My fava beans (which are almost finished) are also growing surrounded by love-in-a-mist.
Quite a difference otherwise here in California.
Jolly well done,Fluer..... showing the younger ones how to graft!!!......This looks as if this was filmed last year.? xxx
We filmed these films on Monday and Tuesday this week :)
❤❤❤❤❤😅

Nice garden ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ What is a comfrey plant ?
Comfrey is a herb we use to make a fertiliser for our plants :)
Great video ladies and lots of hard work well done . Can I ask you what is weed soup and what is it used for ?
It a fertliser we made by soaking all our weeds in water :)
You need a large cultivating tool, A spade ,A hoe, A heavy fork ,something. Good grief! Put the earth down then dig it in to make it softer.
We put the earth down on cardboard that is why we had to use the pole to pierce it. Putting down compost first reduces the need to weed and keeps the soil moister :)
Oh no not morning glory
I for one do not understand the concept of the allotments. Can someone explain it to me without making me feel dumb??
For people who want to grow flowers/ herbs/ veggies who may not have the space on their own property or live in an apartment. The local council provides a piece of land which is divided up . A bit like a community garden except each individual has their own allotment. Sometimes you have to go on a waiting list. Sometimes there might be a small rent.
You mentioned a plant called Comfrey what is that? Are you using it for something? I think I have a lot of them in my garden, they are like a weed, and I have never seen them before, so I don`t know any name, the leaves reminds me of Foxgloves. Lovely video, thank you both.
Comfrey is a herb. We use it to make a great fertiliser for our allotment by soaking the leaves in water :)
@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers ok, thank you, I use mostly stinging nettle (we call them burning nettles). Have a nice summer.
What gardening Zone do you live in? I am in zone 3 and at least a month or so behind in my yard.
Reply 6-9 but i just looked that up and it could be completely wrong!
How big is your allotment? It looks quite large in the video.
It is a half plot so not too large :)
What is weed soup?
