I am a regular reader of Jane Perrone's allotment and garden blog. It was not a conscious decision to make Jane's blog one of my favourite's, it just happen, but I am glad I did.
Jane (when she finds the time) tells some funny little stories and also gives some great advice to here considerable following.
Now, for all of Jane's fans (both now and in the future) you can actually read about her exploits in the allotment in a new book The Allotment Keepers Handbook.
Michelle at Veg Plotting has reviewed Jane's book and here is a little excerpt from the review.
"Unlike most of the books in this genre, The Allotment Keeper's Handbook falls into the practical sized volume - neither coffee table glossy nor impossibly large. It feels like it should have the reassuring words Don't Panic written on the cover in the style of Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. This is a book written from personal experience aimed at the beginner allotmenteer. It's like you have that allotmenteering friend to show you the ropes right there in your hand - the friend I didn't have when I started my allotment 4 years ago."
