THE PILGRIM PLOTTERS

Gardeners know the real benefits of gardening, growing fresh produce and getting your hands into the soil. Since the pandemic first struck in March 2020, more and more people have taken to growing their own and allotments have become even more popular as people have discovered the importance of being outside in the fresh air.

One such allotment group that has embraced the health and well-being benefits of gardening and being outdoors is the Willoughby Road Allotment Association in Boston, Lincolnshire.
