A Hut of One's Own: How to Make the Most of Your Allotment Shed
Author(s): Emily Chappell
Allotments are places to grow food, but they are so much more than that. They are also places that encourage spontaneity, exploration, learning, sharing, restful activity and camaraderie. This book is a celebration of the allotment hut - their architecture and design, but most of all the wonderful invention and resourcefulness that makes each one unique. A series of original and charming illustrations offer insight into the world of allotment huts and offer inspiration to create your own, very special shed. This is the ideal gift book for allotment folk, gardeners or those curious about alternative lifestyles and the quirkier side of life.
