Person
In 2007, Jonathan took on a redundant allotment plot in Burnham-on-Crouch with his gardening-mad mum. Jonathan has been blogging about the process as he learns the hard way what works and what doesn't. A steady stream of incredibly tasty fruit and veg has been winging its way to their kitchens ever since.
