Before I left for Houston, a few of my outdoor items was moved over to my step-mums allotment. She needed a garden storage box and I had one to many 😉
At the same time I figured I could clear out some more stuff, and she ended up with 3 flowerpots, 2 trays for the flowerpots and one of my Hydrangeas, in addition to the garden storage box.
At the time I totally forgot to take the pictures for my blog 😦
Today though, I went over to her allotment to pick some apples from one of her apple trees 🙂 and I figured it was as good a time as any, to show you the things that made it out-the-door (or out-of-garden as it was) before I left for my Houston trip.
I guess.. better late than never.. right? 😉
I’d be interested to hear more about the “allotment” system there. As far as I know, we don’t have anything like it in the states. I’ve seen allotment gardens on a film set in England ~> Another Year.

Haven’t forgotten about this 🙂 Actually I’ve decided to write up a small piece about the Norwegian allotment system as a result from your comment. Most likely I’ll be writing a bit about my step-mums allotment going forward, so I figured I might as well explain how it’s done over here 🙂 Right now, the piece is a work in progress, but it will come. Thank for giving me a post idea 🙂
