I recommend Allotments4All (http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/joomla/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,91/)

Thanks for the recommendations guys - I've stuck this so that others can add their favourite gardening and allotment sites too :thumbsup:

I use the BBC gardening pages a lot (linky here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/) ) - the plant finder is fab :)

Garden Organic (http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/) is very good. It has a section "What to do in your garden now" (http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/todo_now/index.php)

Grow Your Own Magazine - http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/
Magazine itself is very good

They have a forum, The Grapevine - http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/grapevine/index.php

I strongly recommend > http://www.meadowmania.co.uk/ for wildflowers, bulbs, grass seed, bird feeders etc.....

Excellent service, cheap & hassle free, used them a lot this year & I'm very satisfied with everything purchased.

I've used:

www.gardenerscorner.co.uk & www.gardenbanter.co.uk

Does anyone know if there is any resource, on line or cd/dvd, that will helpm me plan my allotment on the computer?

I know there are a few general garden planner dvd's- are any of these any good for the allotment gardener?

I do everything else on the computer- i want to do the allotment on it too.. oh actually, not quite EVERYTHING, but you know what i mean!

This allotment bible gives a calendar based on an allotment in Leeds, as well as full information on each veg.

If you need stuff for the garden or allotment, PVGC2 is brilliant-you order online, just go to their site, but if you email them, you can get discounts, bulk deals etc. I use it a lot, and they do have a good range

Hi everyone!
Do you have any experiences with a company called Liveoutside.co.uk? My friend saw them at Hampton Court Flower Show and he really liked their gazebos and summerhouses. I am just about to get myself a summerhouse and I’ve found a really good deal for one at liveoutside.co.uk/our_products/summerhouses/art25.html. Now I wonder if I should go for their offer of installation for £250 or should I arrange it via a local landscaper? Their offer for assembly seems reasonable but I wanted to get some opinions first – do you have any comments?
Thanks a lot .

Yup that;s it. I ordered again yesterday, 3rd time. Haven't been let down yet! Let me now what you think

organic-guru.com
growsheffield.com

Hey evryone I have now updated the whole site hope it is useful.

If you want a site where the answers are quick and useful, I use www.growveg.info quite a newish site, but it has gardening and more on there.
