Title: Allotmenteer, YouTuber & Aspiring Smallholder
Post by: ForkinAllotment on February 09, 2020, 06:38:18 pm

I am Chris, I am an allotmenteer, gardening YouTuber & an aspiring smallholder

I currently have a fairly sizable allotment (150ft x 35ft), but I would love to have a smallholding or small farm, but the only issue I have is that I cannot afford to buy or rent one, at the moment, does anyone know of any other options to become a smallholder or small farmer without any money

I know its probably a long shot but any help would be appreciated to help my dream come true

Thanks
Chris Walker

Hi Chris, and welcome to TAS  :wave: . Access to affordable land is sadly a huge issue.
