Plot 163b is our allotment project.
We took over this long-neglected plot in 2021, and are in the process of transforming it into a Permaculture allotment site, demonstrating the ethics, principles and methods of Permaculture.

The Plot 163b Story
This is our second plot on the Cromwell Road allotments site.
​
From 2009 - 2015 we looked after plot 132b, and for some of that time, 133a, both of which are literally a stone's throw from 163b.
​
After a few years running Wishtree in Devon, we returned to Cromwell Road and set about turning this little allotment plot into a lush, abundant food forest.
​
We're designing using the Food Forest layers, scaled down to an appropriate scale and planted up with loads of tasty goodies
