I have been using the no dig method for about 12-13 years with excellent results. It is also a lot easier now that I am 80!
I usually get selected as in the top 10 of allotments on our site and even Commended or Highly Commended from all the allotments in Loughton, Essex.
The allotment is on a steep hill and is the second oldest allotment site in continuous cultivation since 1813!
I put the black landscape fabric down so I can use my kneeler.
