  1. Definitely looking autumnal now 😍 The big pond at the allotments viewed both ways from midway across the wooden footbridge. Photos taken last Saturday #naturephotography #landscapephotography #allotments | #kent #england

  6. These two pristine swans came up to me (well, one did, the other hung back) when I went to take my usual photo from footbridge. It's the first time I've seen them on the big allotment pond. Unfortunately, I didn't have my duck food on me 😞 #MuteSwans #CygnusOlor #Swans #Allotments #Kent #England | #birdsoftheworld #birds

  7. Ho ve, someone's chomped on the furthermost radishes (The 'Candela di fuoco' I sowed on the 14th of last). It looks like I'm down to four! 😅 #Radishes #AllotmentGardening #VegGardening #Gardening #Allotments #Kent #England

  8. This is FANTASTIC.

    I'm a deep believer in creating small, self-sufficient and sustaining communities, especially where #food is concerned.

    This leadership from #NewYorkCity is something to be admired.

    Giving the local #community more #ownership and #sovereignty over the means of #production has so many fabulous benefits:
    - Benefits #ClimateAction / #ClimateChange by reducing #FoodMiles
    - Benefits local #people by reconnecting them with the food on their plates
    - Supports the #Local #Economy by keeping wealth & spending in the local area for the benefit of local #business

    #Bristol (where I live now) is a city of #UrbanFarms and #allotments. It's staggering, actually, how much production capacity there is here. And I'm proud of it.

    However, we must also be attentive to the #equality and #equity issues. #LocalSourcing can come with a price premium (local carrots here can cost 4x supermarket versions from the other side of #Europe).
    Local production must come with local affordability too. That's a redline for me...

    Finally, this level of #system change must be, surely, a great example of #SocialMarketing / #SocMar in action!
