My name is Bridgette Saunders.  Through these bulletins I hope I can both inspire and encourage you to manage your allotment in a way that is productive, pleasurable and fun!  I also hope to explain some of the theory behind the principles of growing flowers, fruit and vegetables to help make more sense of how to make your allotment a success.  I have started off with a few general advice topics and from June 2011 will be doing a monthly bulletin with topics relevant to the time of year.

Best wishes, Bridgette

A message from the BHAF: This bulletin comes to you thanks to funding from the Big Lottery via the Harvest Brighton & Hove project. Harvest and the Allotment Federation are delighted to be working together to reaching and support new growers via its partnership with the Allotment Federation.
