It's all about logistics with an allotment
One of the few disadvantages of allotments compared to owning a kitchen garden is logistics. The carrying of compost and seeds, pots and trays etc to your plot can be a bit of a chore and it is at this time of year when potting compost, manures, seed potatoes and rotavators need to reach your plot that you notice it the most. Some allotments do have vehicle access but many hundreds do not.
