Michael is delivering a solo episode this week, as he chats to Ed Morrison about the unique Roots Allotment project - geared towards the modern allotmenteer, where equipment is shared, plots are smaller, and a no-dig method of growing is encouraged. 

Listen to Michael chat to Ed about the project in great detail! We think you’ll feel very inspired that we can all grow, wherever we live!
