🎧 🌬️ Weathering the Storm | A Day at the Allotment with Storm Darragh
from Gardening with Ben - Garden and Allotment Tips and Advice Podcast · host Gardening With Ben.
🌬️🌱 Storm Darragh has hit hard — and today’s episode takes you straight to the allotment to experience the chaos, the challenges, and the surprising resilience of the garden in wild weather. From rattling tunnels to bending brassicas, this episode is a real behind-the-scenes look at what happens when nature tests your plot. We’ll chat about the immediate damage, quick fixes, how the structures held up, what survived against the odds, and which parts of the garden took the biggest beating. You’ll also hear the essential after-storm tasks: repairing supports, checking roots, securing netting, clearing pathways, and inspecting sheds and tunnels. Storms may shake the allotment — but they never shake a gardener’s determination.
