Another great example where an open mind of any age will learn new things. My neighbour is in her 90's always seems to relish the challenge of learning new things, and it does seem to keep her brain sharp.
I grew my vegetables on a neighbours allotment, he even lent me tools to make the process easier. After a while, out families crops were solely grown there.
One day, we were kicked off the allotment, out access to the crops gone in an instant.
I tried to remonstrate, but just got a waving hand in the face.
I am hoping if I publicise it enough in the local gardening forums, the allotment owner might feel a slight bit of pressure to act in this case, but apparently others who used his land didn't dare so well without someone trumpeting their case.
If only we had maintained the knowledge how to tend our own garden.
