Allotments in England are gardens throughout the city that are in empty, unused spaces. They started springing up in the 1860's! During World War II they helped to feed those who were starving. They sound a lot like our current Guerrilla Gardens in our cities here (except Allotments are, well, not a secretive)...we're a bit behind. You can read a bit more about them here.Thursday, June 26, 2008
