🌞🌻ABOUT THE CHANNEL🌻🌞
Bored of the usual vanilla, ‘Pollyanna-esque’ allotment/gardening vlog formats that saturate TH-cam, we decided to start our own, unique channel in 2023. Follow the adventures of our family as we navigate life on two allotment plots based in Devon in the UK. The Allotment Family Diary offers a light-hearted, realistic and informative look at the daily running of two large allotment plots. Chocked with dry-wit and lovingly edited, we film hours of footage each month to bring you weekly episodes that document life at our allotment plots, and sometimes outside of them.
🌷🌻ABOUT THE ALLOTMENT FAMILY🌻🌷
Tilly and Nick have maintained their plot for almost ten years now, and Tom (their son), Han (Tom's wife), and Flo (Tom and Han's daughter) acquired theirs in May 2023, with a plot extension in Feb 2024. Look forward to seeing Alfie (an elderly lurcher) and Tor (a young Romanian rescue dog) joining us in our diaries, as well as our 6 chickens (new additions to the Allotment Family), and various stray cats and other wildlife that call the allotment their home.

I've never had issues with slugs/snails eating my potato plants until this year! I'm looking to harvest some of mine this weekend for some Roasties! Yours look Fab!!! 🥔 🌿🌱

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

It’s crazy this year, right?! Enjoy the roasties! ☺️

[@robertmeakings9774]

Morning good video I like the potatoe taste test

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm! It was fun to try this ☺️

[@deedrahburgoynesearfoss6280]

Those potatoes look extra delicious. I enjoy new potatoes simmered with green beans.

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm! What a great combo 😋

[@jesschance2873]

Thnx for sharing. I would ❤ to see a garden tour! 🥰

[@HomeGrownVeg]

Nice video, well put together and presented and a good return from two tops. That's a result!

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Ty for watching!

[@DanSmithing]

Nice potatoes and I like the taste test idea 👍

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Thank you so much 😊

[@CraigsAllotment]

Good stuff. Thanks for posting. I'll be looking out for some for next season.
Hope the team are all well :)

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm for watching, Craig! Certainly worth growing, a great staple on the dinner table 😊

[@myrustygarden]

Wow that’s a fab harvest and yep I had slugs “in” my potato pot up on a raised table 😱😱. Little taters always cost more here in the shops. Awesome job Tom and fab harvest, Ali 🌧️🌧️🇨🇦

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm, Ali! Still can’t believe how persistent the slimy buggers are this year. Funny how salad potatoes are always more expensive in shops than your usual size considering they are so quick to harvest. Have a great week 😊

[@myrustygarden]

@@AllotmentFamilyDiary same with baby carrots 🥕🤦🏼‍♀️

[@marking-time-gardens]

Interesting... have never done a potato comparison test before. I am amazed at the progress of your potatoes at 10 weeks! This was definitely fun and will put this idea in my garden journal to try for next year! Blessings on everyone and your growing season Kiddos!🌻🐛Carolyn in Ohio 🌿💚💕

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Ty, Carolyn! We think the manure and liquid feed certainly helped. Have a great week 😊

[@sarahsallotmentjourney]

My number one veg … potatoes

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, stick ‘em in a stew! Love ‘em! ☺️

[@JerryTheSaint]

Great harvest and video as always guys. Cannot wait to see the sack fulls you have in a few weeks 💪😀

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm, Jerry! I think we’ll be sick of spuds come mid summer!

[@peterpumpkinhead]

Brilliant spuds. Where do you buy your seed potatoes? Smashing vid as always

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Ty for watching. These are from our trading site at our allotment site 😊

[@lynnstaininger8592]

I love your taste test!

[@AllotmentFamilyDiary]

Tysm! Love us some delicious taters!

[@uppanadam]
