Its Autumn, and many crops have already been harvested.
The more hardy plants are coming into their own as we wave goodbye to summer. I think this is a really interesting transitional period in the allotment, and perhaps a time that we don't photograph as much.
I have photographed two of my favorite working allotments today; Granddad Harold's and Uncle Rob's, two very different allotments.
Granddad Harold has tended his allotment for near on 40 years, and my family have grown up eating its produce. It is a true working allotment in the heart of the Cheshire countryside, surrounded by workshops and sheds. This is in complete contrast to Uncle Robs - an allotment created earlier this year in a traditional back garden.
Enjoy the photographs, let me know what you think, and tell me about your allotment at this time of year!
