During the Second World War, getting the most from your little plot of land was crucial. This film, produced by the Ministry of Agriculture in 1941, explains how to prepare an area of ground for growing your veg, and shows why not having space is simply no excuse.
i have had a allotment for 30yrs, grow all my own veg, and have poultry too, so free range eggs, most satisfying hobby anyone could possibly have, in my eyes that is
