Dear Martha. Thank you so much for the tour and opening your home to your mum's channel. Agnes is adorable. Kate is fortunate to have such a wonderful daughter. Please take care. Susan from British Columbia.
Thank you so much Martha for helping your Mom out and sharing your garden with us. Adam did a great job taking the video. Hope Kate continues to improve feel better 💕
Martha is Kate's mini-me! " Hello RUclips friends", sounds exactly like Kate! Lovely video. Sorry to hear of Kate's medical problem- definitely NOT FUN. Good to know she is on the mend- Take care! We'll all be here on the couch patiently waiting !!
I thought Martha looks a lot like Kate too. And I noticed that the no meat thing seems to run in the family also. Thank you, Martha, for explaining the allotment. I thought it might have been a community garden thing. Do you freeze or can any of your produce? Cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower are winter crops. Will you be growing those, or are the winters too severe there? There isn't anything like homegrown anything. So much more tasty than commercially grown. Working in the garden is also good exercise, plus you walk to it. You said you can't put up structures over a certain height. So the poly tunnel is allowed, not too high? Great job. Thank you John, Anna, Martha and Agnes for helping out Kate.
Martha, it's funny you said that about your granddad growing a garden to see if he could do it. I believe your mom's a chip off the Ole block. 😊 She talks about how she is capable to do so many things. She said, she just tried whatever just to see if she could. Now we know where she gets it from. We love your mom so much and all of you youngsters and your families. Little Agnes is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your world with us. ❤😊🇺🇲 Susan Garman, Virginia, USA.
Martha, you all have a lovely allotment! Thank you for showing us 'round. Adam did a super job videoing. Agnes is growing so fast. She certainly loves fresh picked veggies! Healing thoughts for your mom❣️
What a lovely video Martha Adam and Agnes. Your a special young lady Agnes,. Agnes definitely seems to enjoy her veg. This is something so good to see children eating. No wonder you are a very proud grandma Kate. Why wouldn’t you be. Nice well stocked allotment , the produce looks very good quality and tasty. Thank you all for your time. Very kind of you to share some of your time with us, and giving mum a little bit longer to recover. I am sure that will help her no end. I hope your feeling a bit easier as well Kate., enjoy those lovely flowers. If I grow Dahlias they get eaten by slugs . And they would never look like yours Martha. So I don’t even bother trying to grow them here. Shame as they are so colourful.. keep the good work up, it’s definitely worth your efforts.
Really enjoyed this peek at your allotment, it’s so colourful and lush. Agnes is adorable. Thank you Martha and Adam for sharing your time and best wishes for a speedy recovery to Kate.
It's wonderful to watch the joy kids get from eating from their own gardens. I love the way Agnes says 'yeah' ,with the inflection, when answering a question
A lovely tour. You have some amazing produce growing there- definitely a green thumb! So wonderful to have your own little garden paradise to fill your fridge and provide endless fun and learning for Agnes- and for you! Thank you! Hope your mum is better soon- vertigo is so awful!
Wonderful to see your allotment. We kind of have that here. More a community garden. We live on a farm and I grew up on an acre of ground. My mom gardened and canned lots of food for us. 5 kids and her and Dad.
Omg, baby with a pot on her head. I think my heart just burst. Lovely episode, thank you martha, for filling in for your mum. Thinking of you, Kate, and sending vibes of love.
Hey Kate, I hope that you are recovering from your illness! Martha, I really enjoyed your talk about allotments, and watching Agnes eat her favorite vegetables. Do you dry the flowers, bring them to your mom or take them to your home? Do you give the chickens and Eileen the greens from the beets? Do you can or freeze your vegetables? You have done wonders with that bit of land! Nice flowers and vegetables, Martha, Adam & Agnes!
Allotments are such a great concept for many reasons. My parents gardened to feed the family, not just for enjoyment. Picking and preserving the harvest was an incredible amount of work. Hats off to my parents, especially my mother.
Absolutely lovely vegetables. Agnes is so pretty. She is getting big. You have a lovely home. Please tell Kate we all send good wishes for a speedy recovery. Thank you for helping her. Linda, PA, USA
Hope Kate is doing much better and back to normal very soon. What a lovely free-spirit is Agnes. Every child should have this kind of childhood, roaming through a garden munching on whatever looks yummy!
Oh my word Kate you are so bless your family is awesome. It was a treat last week with John and Anna, This week Martha, Adam and Agnes. Continue to feel better and thanks for all the love from the family. Please pass some tea and soup along the lime green sofa too Kate.
Generous of you to share a bit of your life with us. I'm on the Lime Green Sofa wishing I was at your dinner table eating the really colourful lunch! Thanks Martha, Adam and Agnes 🌼
It was so nice to meet Agnes' family. Do you go to the allotment everyday? Are all the weeds pulled by hand? How do you keep up with it all & chase Agnes & give her naps??? Do you do a lot of canning? Or how do you preserve your harvest for winter? Martha thanks for sharing the allotment with us. It looked so nice & productive! Kate, we miss you & are patiently awaiting your return. Take care!
Hi Martha, Adam and Agnes. It's me the lady who crocheted those baby clothes and blankets for Angnes 2 years ago. I know allotments. When I was a kid there were allotments very close to our home. I always looked at it from afar. My parents didn't garden at all. This is amazing. Look at all those cucumbers and tomatoes. It's so nice to see Agnes walk around and snack. That polly tunnel is amazing. Those leeks looked amazing. That's one if my favourite veggies. I grew things on my small balcony. Peppers, jalapeños and grew peas once. When you grow it yourself it tastes so much better. I love it to see more of your allotment in the future. It was nice to see you all. And Kate I know you're reading comments 😉 so take your time. Get well soon and if you need more time, take it. Love to all from the Netherlands ❤ 👋🏻 🇳🇱
Well this was an absolute treat and a a joy! Thank you so much Martha and Agnes (and Adam!). Your garden is stunning and in such a beautiful setting. Loved all the shots and edit too (thank you Anna). So very happy making. Thank you.
Hello Martha, it's lovely to meet you and tell you what a good job you're doing in front of the camera. Your allotment is an example of joyful abundance both of produce and opportunities for Agnes to learn useful and interesting new things. Love to Kate, hope she's feeling better when you see her tomorrow.
November 25 2022: Martha how very wonderful that the family has this allotment. I wondered what that had meant. I do not have a veggie garden but when my children were little we have farms around us that we can go and pick veggies to some fruits like strawberries, apples , peaches and pumpkin patches. When my youngest one would go with his sister and I strawberry picking the farm we went to we rode on a flatbed while sitting on bales of hay and the farmer would drop off us off in the area to pick. My daughter and I would pick the strawberries and while my youngest was busy eatting them. I use to think that the farmer woulld need to weigh him first and then when we would return again! He definitely ate much more than he picked. What a very hearty lunch. I never thought of gravy to enhance the meals. Agnes is loving it. Panda? Thank you for a visit into your life style and the beautiful harvest. I have to look for the purple potatoes. Cheers.
Martha,Adam and of course precious Agnes thank you for sharing info on your allotment. Most Americans may have no clue about paying someone for garden space, unless they lived in a city. Here in New York State in the Catskills, plenty of room for garden, if you don’t mind tilling through the stone. Lots of Stone!!! Kate dear, sorry about your vertigo, been there until doc found the crystals in my ears were out of alignment, not had it since (knock on wood). Blessing and healing ❤️🩹
What a joy to see you, Martha, Adam, and Agnes!! I really enjoyed the allotment tour and everything looks wonderful. The views are so beautiful, as well! I’m sad to hear that Kate is still not feeling 100%, but I’m sure she’ll be feeling herself very soon. We have a fairly good sized back yard here in Indiana, and up until last year we had mostly lawn and a few trees. My husband started a vegetable garden last year, like everyone, and has expanded quite a bit this past spring, and, I know, that he would love nothing better than to make the whole yard into a garden, including the front yard! I would love see your allotment through the year as well as seeing what Anna and John are getting up to. I’ve missed seeing Kate but it’s been fantastic seeing Kate’s wonderful family as well!!! Thank you and take care!! 🥰
Thank you Martha and Adam for sharing your allotment, home and lovely daughter with us. Give your mum love from me. Agnes has the most lovely setting and family for her upbringing, as you live the family traditions with her learning effortlessly along the way. I live in a retirement community and have used part of my yard for a little garden plot, mostly fabrlc grow pots with varieties of tomatoes and squash, some peppers, cucumbers, garlic and many flowers. I am able to share a lot with my neighbors, many of whom are in their 90s and it is a treat to see their faces light up when I take over a container of Sweet 100s or Husky Cherry Reds, or Sun Sugar tomatoes. Have a great week!
Of course Kate is missed but delightful of John and Anna and Martha and Adam (and Agnes!) for treating us to the Hebrides and the allotment. Very much enjoyed both special episodes. Best wishes to Kate for a speedy and complete recovery. Martha's flowers are beautiful!
Martha looks like her mum they are both beautiful ladies, Agnes is so cute lovely little girl, My father in law and brother in law had allotment your allotment looks great your veggies all looks real delicious and your flowers are beautiful I'm sure your mum (Kate) will love them!!!! Thank you Martha and Adam for sharing with us very kind of you both stepping in for your mum you both done awesome job!!! Tell Kate to rest and take the time she needs we will be here waiting on the green sofa lots of love Kate take great care God Bless Hugs Liz x B.C. Canada 🇨🇦homeland Northern Ireland. UK
What a lovely, lovely video! Oh.. I am going to see this 'one more' time. Martha, you are a natural talent for the youtube friends :-) Thank you for letting us in to your house and garden, and explaining about your vegatables via this video. In Holland we also have this kind of gardens we can rent. Much people do, because they don't have a garden. Lots of love to your family. Thank you for this video!
Hi Margy, I am in the Netherlands too (not in Holland but in Drenthe). I have a 'volkstuin' (= allotment garden), not because of having no garden (where I live almost everyone has a front and back yard), only to grow more vegetables.
Thank you for another family video. 😊 The allotment looks both wonderful and bountiful which is absolutely fabulous for the bunny named Agnes. Growing food is such a great thing to teach kids, there are chores but also a sense of accomplishment, experimentation and the delight of picking and eating right from the source; food should always taste that good. The container hat may catch on😄 and I think it's good for kids to get some fresh air and a little dirty playing in the garden. I love Sunday lunch, it's a tradition I miss a great deal. I'm in Canada (totally different zone - it's cold!) but I would love to know the varieties that have been unusual or successful for you; the flowers were beautiful too btw. You have done your Mom proud; a lovely video. We all look forward to her being well soon, thanks again for letting us visit and showing us around.😊 (silly🐼 is adorable LOL)
How lovely this video is! I think you should do a regular feature Martha, with Agnes and John. You are very good on the camera. Hope Kate is recovering. I have had several bouts with vertigo and it is not fun at all. It leaves you feeling quite helpless. Agnes has many of the same facial expressions as Kate does. Precious little one💕
How kind of all of you to help out your mom this way. Really enjoyed seeing a little bit of your lives. We have allotments here as well in Northern Ontario but they aren't as popular as they are in the UK. I'm lucky and have a fair sized yard, even though I'm in a neighbourhood so I can grow pretty much as much as I'd like or can eat. Thanks again. I imagine Kate must have loved this video with Agnes.
Nothing beat watching a child in a vegetable garden. Agnes will grow up with a great understanding of gardening and the produce it can provide. Thank you for stepping in for your Mom, how very lucky for both of you to be there for each other. 👍❤️😊
What a pleasure it is to meet you Martha. Thank you so much for taking us to your allotment. I have a greenhouse and its amazing how the veges take over. Gardening is great, such a lovely way to spend time.
What a lovely tour of your allotment! I think the equivalent here in Canada would be what we call a “community garden”, but I don’t know anyone who has a plot as large as yours. Lucky Agnes to have you, Kate and the garden to learn from. My sister and I learned from our Yorkshire Grannie, who was a phenomenal gardener throughout her life. When she had to move into a care facility at 93 the managers built her several raised beds so that she could keep growing! It was her passion, which she passed on. All the best to Kate! ❤️ from 🇨🇦
I really enjoyed this video and thanks so much Martha, Adam and Agnes for showing us your allotment and sharing some of your life with us. It looks to be a very productive garden and I am sure you enjoy all the rewards of gardening - not just the produce. Would love to see your allotment again some time. Here in NZ more and more local communities in cities have community gardens where interested folk share in the care of a big garden and eat and/or sell the produce. There is also a huge move towards children being taught to garden at school. So fabulous to be educated about life and living as well as academic subjects. Agnes will benefit so much from learning to garden with you.Take care Kate, hope you are well enough to be back on board soon.
I’m sorry that Kate is feeling poorly, and I’m glad she’s on the mend. Thank you Martha, Agnes, and Adam for sharing your allotment. I live in zone 4 about 3 hours north of Toronto, Ontario. We have a very short growing season. Our last frost is generally around the full moon in June and our first killing frost is often in mid Sept. I helped friends assemble a 32’ greenhouse kit this past spring, and they’re so please with their first efforts at greenhouse gardening. They are definitely looking forward to extending their growing season! Thanks also goes to Anna for your editing! Stay well!💜 Muskoka ON 🇨🇦
Thank you for the tour of your amazing garden Martha. I loved learning about the influence and knowledge you gained from your grandfather and mother. The lushness of your bounty shows that you are carrying on the family tradition. Seeing Agnes pick and munch on veggies was a delight as was being in you company during your meal, "Farm-to-table." Anna terrific editing as usual and love the music you chose. I'm going to look that fellow up.
Thank you Anna, John , Martha, Adam and Agnes for the videos you made while Kate is recovering. Kate take all the time you need to mend as your family is doing a fantastic job ! Elena, Italy
Hope that poor Kate is getting better, just to remind her that she put the bulbs from Freddie's flowers in her fridge, to plant in October I think? I just remember things like this. Love Freddie's Flowers! Wishing you better lovely Kate. xxx
Thank you Martha, Adam, Agnes and Anna. This was a nice treat. I didn’t know about allotments. It was very nice of you all to step in for your Mum. Sending Kate warm wishes from Texas. 🤗🤗
Well, it was so nice to meet Martha and her family. Agnes has grown so much. The allotment is quite a bountiful space to have. Thank you for sharing this. Hoping that you are feeling better being right up now, Kate. Your children have filled in for you nicely. Looking forward to your return.
Thank you for sharing! A beautiful video. Editing was PERFECT! LOVE THE MUSIC. Well done Anna! Thank you Martha, Agnes & Adam for showing us around your allotment.
So sorry that Kate is not well enough to film right now. It was fun to see Martha and Agnes and all the wonderful things growing in the allotment. hugs to Kate.
Thanks for the tour of your allotment and sweetie pie, Agnes. I miss Kate, but have enjoyed the fill in videos provided. Thanks to all, John, Anna, Martha, Adam, and Agnes. I too, love veggies. I have a small patch and grow veggies in Winter. I live in So. fl. USA hi all on LGS. Good vibes sent to Kate, be well soon.
This video was a joy to watch. Thank you all for sharing your allotment, and Sunday lunch with us. I do hope we can see you all again soon. Love and get better soon to Kate.
Thank you Martha for such a lovely tour....the allotment is lovely.. & little princess 👸 tasting all ... well she’s just so special... Hoping Kate is doing better .... Vertigo is not for the faint of heart!! It’s swells up from nowhere .... taking one down quickly.. Please please let Kate know she must behave 😊 & rest up.. Loved your share maybe next time you can share your FAB baking shop..♥️ Blessings ~ 🇺🇸from Ohio Across the pond..
So nice to spend time with your kids dear Kate! But missing you - my Sunday evening special treat. Hope you kick that vertigo's butt all the way to where it came from. See you soon. Tell your lovely family that they are loverly! There are allotments in Canada in most cities. I live in the country so don't have one but our bit of land is big enough for our garden. Just have to keep the deer and rabbits out.
Lovely size allotment, well worth the price. Nothing better than home grown food and flowers to enjoy. Great environmental for Agnes as well.Take care Kate.
Hi Martha! Nice to see Kate's family members in videos too. You could start your own channel, all about your allotment garden ... or your mum can show it once in a while. I have an allotment garden too, in Dutch we call it 'volkstuin' (translated: people's garden). I think they are organised somewhat different than in the UK. But anyway there's a committee too, and rules ...
What a lovely child Agnes is. She’s grown so much. What nice children Kate has, too. I’m enjoying her family, too. Hope Kate is better soon. My mother had vertigo and it’s really difficult to get over it. Thoughts are with you.
Allotments are a paradise, wish we could have them in the States. Although they would probably rent for thousands a month, ha. I'm 78 but I can remember all my grandparents and aunts and uncles had backyard gardens and chickens in northern california. Anyway I so enjoyed watching Kate's family and hope she is doing well as we miss her here on the couch.
Thank you Martha ,Adam and of course Agnes. Agnes is going to grow up with a multitude of skills. Loved this Martha, you are certainly doing well with your Allotment. I loved the flower arrangement in your home with the Dahlias. I think Kate mentioned you grow them yourself. They are gorgeous, love all the colours. When it is the right season, I would love to see a video of how you have achieved to grow these flowers, if that is possible please. Kate you must be so proud of all your family. Looking forward to seeing you when you are able Kate. Thank you. xxx
Thank you so much Adam, Martha & little bit Agnes - all of you are just wonderful to share this peek into your world. Your allotment is fantastic and everything looks delicious! I gasped when I first saw Martha and see Kate in your face! Hoping she is well and on the mend! xo
You have a beautiful allotment. I always went with my dad and my Uncle Sid to their allotment and until the last few years have grown lots of veg, kept chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys. I used to help my dad prepare both chickens and chrysanthemums for showing. This was in the days when you boxed them up and put them on the train, in the guards van, and someone from the show would come and pick them up. Now I have quite bad arthritis and the poultry and the veg have gone by the way. But it was lovely to watch you in yours and relive a bit of the pleasure you get from eating what you have grown with your own hands. Thank you x
SO SWEET! I was thinking - all your veg that comes home must have a small 'chomp' from Agnes!!! The image of your flowers against that gorgeous blue wall was AMAZING! I stopped the video just to take it all in - so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your allotment and it was lovely to get to know you better - we hear so much about you! Love to Agnes! xx
Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with us. Agnes is a fabulous future gardener. I hope your mom is feeling better soon. I miss her and her lovely way of the world.
Martha, I love your name. That was my mom's name. She is in heaven now, miss her so much. You have a wonderful mother, Kate is so talented and down to earth. I wish I could go visit her and learn so much from her. I know how she feels with vertigo. I got it on a plane trip back to South Carolina from Hawaii. I thought I was dying or the plane was going down. A doctor trip as soon as we got home. It was awful. Pray she will be back to happy self soon. Thank you and John for helping. 🌺🌷😽😊
Wonderful seeing Martha and Agnes enjoying the allotment! Only thing better would be if you Kate were there with your wonderful family! Please take care of yourself and come back to us when you are ready...love to you and your wonderful family.
🤗 Glad you are doing better Kate. Thank you to Martha, Adam, and Agnes for a very interesting video. Nice of you to share the allotment idea with us! Take care all.
This was soooo adorable in every way! Thank you Martha, Agnes & hubby for sharing your lives with us! Wishing you well Kate~take care of you, hydrate with lots of H2O and rest! Xoxo
That was lovely, thank you three for showing us a bit about your allotment and a snippet of your days. And Agnes, of course! We have community gardens in the communities here in Maine, available in most towns. Some of the private buildings in the city have garden spaces on their roofs for tenants too. It’s lovely to have the produce.
Thank you for filling in and showing us your allotment. I live in the US (grew up on a farm) and seem to have a bit of a fascination with allotments. I follow Jessie at Plot37 so have learned a lot from her. It is wonderful for Agnes to grow up learning about growing food and taking care of the poultry at Grandma’s house. Nothing better for a kid than to learn where food comes from, to pick and eat veg right off the plant, to get dirty and eat some dirt. It’s good for the mind and the immune system. Looking forward to seeing the allotment through the various seasons. Cheers!
Wow, amazing to see this very special garden. And people. And, sounds just like Kate. Yes. So sorry about Kate’s vertigo, but the silver lining has been these 2 very special looks at different lives and areas of Britain. Thanks for being so thoughtful! Get well quick!!
Thank you for the tour Martha, Adam and Agnes! You have a great allotment. And yes you are so much like your Mum which as you know is a huge compliment!
So happy to see Martha and sweet Agnes although wish it wasn't because Kate is not quite up to par. Sending good wishes for a complete recovery. Kate is very lucky to have such a wonderful family close to help.
Feel better Kate!! My mom would get vertigo and it would take a while to go away but it always did. Martha your garden is just beautiful! Agnes looks like she loves it!!
Martha Agnes & Adam thank you for showing us your amazing allotment & poly tunnel & Agnes for entertaining us Martha you are so like your Mum ! I hope she is recovering well it is horrid 😩
Wonderful video Martha and Adam. Lovely to see your allotment and your vegies. The flowers were absolutely beautiful. Martha you were so natural and so like Kate in your relaxed manner. Great job 👏
Missing you Kate but so nice to get to know your children more, especially Martha whom we don’t see as much. Thank you for showing us your allotment and the yummy veggies! Agnes is adorbs.
Get well soon Kate.. no hurry we'll all still be here for you and thanks to your wonderful family we're all still in the loop as to what's happening in your life and theirs. Much love Lynne (Sunderland) xx💐💐💝💐💝
Hi Martha ,it is nice to meet you and your family. You have done a lovely job on your allotment,incorporating all those beautiful ,veggies and flowers! Little Agnes loves those veggies! Sending prayers for your mom to heal fast!
Dear Kate, hope your equilibrium gets back to normal soon. Love seeing Martha and darling Agnes in your absence. Take care and looking forward to see you soon.
What a lovely way for a child to grow up- knowing where her food comes from and how much better it tastes fresh!! So much beauty and healthy flavor. All those lovely nutrients going into her body from the time she began eating solid food I'll bet.
Agnes is such a beautiful soul and love seeing her enjoy gardening and getting involved. I try to get my grandchildren involved in our little homestead. Kate has such a beautiful family. I hope Kate is feeling better soon, I so love her viedos and look forward to them. Lots of peace and love to yall from small town Virginia USA. 🥰
Really enjoyed the allotment tour with Martha and Agnes today. Enjoyed dinner with the family too! What a lovely family for Agnes to grow up in! Hope you’re feeling better soon Kate! I’ll be waiting to share a cuppa and a bit of a chat with you, on the lime green sofa. It would be lovely if Martha could join us for a cuppa! Love and hugs to all! 🥰
Such a lovely visit in the garden. My mouth was watering as Agnes chomped away. Much love to Kate as she mends. I’ve had a bout of vertigo once only in my life, some 20 yrs ago, which lasted a fortnight. I never want to have it again. 😘
Dear Martha. Thank you so much for the tour and opening your home to your mum's channel. Agnes is adorable. Kate is fortunate to have such a wonderful daughter. Please take care. Susan from British Columbia.

This is amazing. Look at all those cucumbers and tomatoes. It's so nice to see Agnes walk around and snack. That polly tunnel is amazing. Those leeks looked amazing.

November 25 2022: Martha how very wonderful that the family has this allotment. I wondered what that had meant. I do not have a veggie garden but when my children were little we have farms around us that we can go and pick veggies to some fruits like strawberries, apples , peaches and pumpkin patches. When my youngest one would go with his sister and I strawberry picking the farm we went to we rode on a flatbed while sitting on bales of hay and the farmer would drop off us off in the area to pick. My daughter and I would pick the strawberries and while my youngest was busy eatting them. I use to think that the farmer woulld need to weigh him first and then when we would return again! He definitely ate much more than he picked. What a very hearty lunch. I never thought of gravy to enhance the meals. Agnes is loving it. Panda? Thank you for a visit into your life style and the beautiful harvest. I have to look for the purple potatoes. Cheers.
Wonderful film. What an amazing place for Agnes to potter about in. What a life. Kate, you have a fabulous family
Thank you Martha, Adam and Agnes. Wonderful tour of your allotment and Agnes is a delight! Enjoy all your veg and flowers. Hugs xxx
Thank you for showing us around and explaining allotments for us. Prayers for the family's well being and Kate''s recovery.
Martha,Adam and of course precious Agnes thank you for sharing info on your allotment.
Most Americans may have no clue about paying someone for garden space, unless they lived in a city.
Here in New York State in the Catskills, plenty of room for garden, if you don’t mind tilling through the stone. Lots of Stone!!!
Kate dear, sorry about your vertigo, been there until doc found the crystals in my ears were out of alignment, not had it since (knock on wood).
Blessing and healing ❤️🩹
Something so romantic about British allotments. Seems like a different more simple time. How delightful
What a joy to see you, Martha, Adam, and Agnes!! I really enjoyed the allotment tour and everything looks wonderful. The views are so beautiful, as well! I’m sad to hear that Kate is still not feeling 100%, but I’m sure she’ll be feeling herself very soon. We have a fairly good sized back yard here in Indiana, and up until last year we had mostly lawn and a few trees. My husband started a vegetable garden last year, like everyone, and has expanded quite a bit this past spring, and, I know, that he would love nothing better than to make the whole yard into a garden, including the front yard! I would love see your allotment through the year as well as seeing what Anna and John are getting up to. I’ve missed seeing Kate but it’s been fantastic seeing Kate’s wonderful family as well!!! Thank you and take care!! 🥰
Thank you Martha and Adam for sharing your allotment, home and lovely daughter with us. Give your mum love from me. Agnes has the most lovely setting and family for her upbringing, as you live the family traditions with her learning effortlessly along the way. I live in a retirement community and have used part of my yard for a little garden plot, mostly fabrlc grow pots with varieties of tomatoes and squash, some peppers, cucumbers, garlic and many flowers. I am able to share a lot with my neighbors, many of whom are in their 90s and it is a treat to see their faces light up when I take over a container of Sweet 100s or Husky Cherry Reds, or Sun Sugar tomatoes. Have a great week!
Of course Kate is missed but delightful of John and Anna and Martha and Adam (and Agnes!) for treating us to the Hebrides and the allotment. Very much enjoyed both special episodes. Best wishes to Kate for a speedy and complete recovery. Martha's flowers are beautiful!
Martha looks like her mum they are both beautiful ladies, Agnes is so cute lovely little girl, My father in law and brother in law had allotment your allotment looks great your veggies all looks real delicious and your flowers are beautiful I'm sure your mum (Kate) will love them!!!! Thank you Martha and Adam for sharing with us very kind of you both stepping in for your mum you both done awesome job!!! Tell Kate to rest and take the time she needs we will be here waiting on the green sofa lots of love Kate take great care God Bless Hugs Liz x B.C. Canada 🇨🇦homeland Northern Ireland. UK
In the US we have community gardens. There is a small fee for the water, and sometimes that also covers the use of tools. 🥦
I didn't know that was a thing in the US. I don't think I've ever seen it here in Texas.
What a lovely, lovely video! Oh.. I am going to see this 'one more' time. Martha, you are a natural talent for the youtube friends :-) Thank you for letting us in to your house and garden, and explaining about your vegatables via this video. In Holland we also have this kind of gardens we can rent. Much people do, because they don't have a garden. Lots of love to your family. Thank you for this video!
Hi Margy, I am in the Netherlands too (not in Holland but in Drenthe). I have a 'volkstuin' (= allotment garden), not because of having no garden (where I live almost everyone has a front and back yard), only to grow more vegetables.
Thank you for another family video. 😊 The allotment looks both wonderful and bountiful which is absolutely fabulous for the bunny named Agnes. Growing food is such a great thing to teach kids, there are chores but also a sense of accomplishment, experimentation and the delight of picking and eating right from the source; food should always taste that good. The container hat may catch on😄 and I think it's good for kids to get some fresh air and a little dirty playing in the garden. I love Sunday lunch, it's a tradition I miss a great deal. I'm in Canada (totally different zone - it's cold!) but I would love to know the varieties that have been unusual or successful for you; the flowers were beautiful too btw. You have done your Mom proud; a lovely video. We all look forward to her being well soon, thanks again for letting us visit and showing us around.😊 (silly🐼 is adorable LOL)
How lovely this video is! I think you should do a regular feature Martha, with Agnes and John. You are very good on the camera. Hope Kate is recovering. I have had several bouts with vertigo and it is not fun at all. It leaves you feeling quite helpless. Agnes has many of the same facial expressions as Kate does. Precious little one💕
How kind of all of you to help out your mom this way. Really enjoyed seeing a little bit of your lives. We have allotments here as well in Northern Ontario but they aren't as popular as they are in the UK. I'm lucky and have a fair sized yard, even though I'm in a neighbourhood so I can grow pretty much as much as I'd like or can eat. Thanks again. I imagine Kate must have loved this video with Agnes.
You and John did wonderful filling in for your Mom. Glad to hear Kate is on the mend! Thank you!
Nothing beat watching a child in a vegetable garden. Agnes will grow up with a great understanding of gardening and the produce it can provide.
Thank you for stepping in for your Mom, how very lucky for both of you to be there for each other. 👍❤️😊
What a pleasure it is to meet you Martha. Thank you so much for taking us to your allotment. I have a greenhouse and its amazing how the veges take over. Gardening is great, such a lovely way to spend time.
Just gorgeous. Lovely to hear the sound of little teeth in that pepper! And Agnes' delighted smile! Thanks for this, even a year later.
What a lovely tour of your allotment! I think the equivalent here in Canada would be what we call a “community garden”, but I don’t know anyone who has a plot as large as yours. Lucky Agnes to have you, Kate and the garden to learn from. My sister and I learned from our Yorkshire Grannie, who was a phenomenal gardener throughout her life. When she had to move into a care facility at 93 the managers built her several raised beds so that she could keep growing! It was her passion, which she passed on. All the best to Kate! ❤️ from 🇨🇦
I really enjoyed this video and thanks so much Martha, Adam and Agnes for showing us your allotment and sharing some of your life with us. It looks to be a very productive garden and I am sure you enjoy all the rewards of gardening - not just the produce. Would love to see your allotment again some time. Here in NZ more and more local communities in cities have community gardens where interested folk share in the care of a big garden and eat and/or sell the produce. There is also a huge move towards children being taught to garden at school. So fabulous to be educated about life and living as well as academic subjects. Agnes will benefit so much from learning to garden with you.Take care Kate, hope you are well enough to be back on board soon.
I’m sorry that Kate is feeling poorly, and I’m glad she’s on the mend. Thank you Martha, Agnes, and Adam for sharing your allotment. I live in zone 4 about 3 hours north of Toronto, Ontario. We have a very short growing season. Our last frost is generally around the full moon in June and our first killing frost is often in mid Sept. I helped friends assemble a 32’ greenhouse kit this past spring, and they’re so please with their first efforts at greenhouse gardening. They are definitely looking forward to extending their growing season!
Thanks also goes to Anna for your editing! Stay well!💜

Thank you for the tour of your amazing garden Martha. I loved learning about the influence and knowledge you gained from your grandfather and mother. The lushness of your bounty shows that you are carrying on the family tradition. Seeing Agnes pick and munch on veggies was a delight as was being in you company during your meal, "Farm-to-table." Anna terrific editing as usual and love the music you chose. I'm going to look that fellow up.
Thank you Anna, John , Martha, Adam and Agnes for the videos you made while Kate is recovering.
Kate take all the time you need to mend as your family is doing a fantastic job ! Elena, Italy
Hope that poor Kate is getting better, just to remind her that she put the bulbs from Freddie's flowers in her fridge, to plant in October I think? I just remember things like this. Love Freddie's Flowers! Wishing you better lovely Kate. xxx
I had vertigo several years ago. You can't rush it, nor set a time table for it to go away. One day it just disappeared!
Thank you Martha, Adam, Agnes and Anna. This was a nice treat. I didn’t know about allotments. It was very nice of you all to step in for your Mum. Sending Kate warm wishes from Texas. 🤗🤗
Well, it was so nice to meet Martha and her family. Agnes has grown so much. The allotment is quite a bountiful space to have. Thank you for sharing this. Hoping that you are feeling better being right up now, Kate. Your children have filled in for you nicely. Looking forward to your return.
Absolutely love seeing your family at home and Agnes is so Beautiful and enjoying her Garden with mum .
Thank you for sharing! A beautiful video. Editing was PERFECT! LOVE THE MUSIC. Well done Anna! Thank you Martha, Agnes & Adam for showing us around your allotment.
Thanks so much! It was really fun to edit. Anna xx
So sorry that Kate is not well enough to film right now. It was fun to see Martha and Agnes and all the wonderful things growing in the allotment. hugs to Kate.
Thanks for the tour of your allotment and sweetie pie, Agnes. I miss Kate, but have enjoyed the fill in videos provided.
Thanks to all, John, Anna, Martha, Adam, and Agnes. I too, love veggies. I have a small patch and grow veggies in
Winter. I live in So. fl. USA hi all on LGS. Good vibes sent to Kate, be well soon.
You have a lovely family, Kate!
Miss seeing and learning from Kate. Take your time and get well. Don’t rush it. Your family is beautiful..
This video was a joy to watch. Thank you all for sharing your allotment, and Sunday lunch with us. I do hope we can see you all again soon. Love and get better soon to Kate.
Thank you Martha for such a lovely tour....the allotment is lovely.. & little princess 👸 tasting all ... well she’s just
so special...
Hoping Kate is doing better ....
Vertigo is not for the faint of heart!!
It’s swells up from nowhere .... taking one down quickly..
Please please let Kate know she must behave 😊 & rest up..
Loved your share maybe next time you can share your FAB baking shop..♥️
Blessings ~

So nice to spend time with your kids dear Kate! But missing you - my Sunday evening special treat. Hope you kick that vertigo's butt all the way to where it came from. See you soon. Tell your lovely family that they are loverly! There are allotments in Canada in most cities. I live in the country so don't have one but our bit of land is big enough for our garden. Just have to keep the deer and rabbits out.
Agnes is absolutely adorable.
Lovely size allotment, well worth the price. Nothing better than home grown food and flowers to enjoy. Great environmental for Agnes as well.Take care Kate.
Hi Martha! Nice to see Kate's family members in videos too. You could start your own channel, all about your allotment garden ... or your mum can show it once in a while. I have an allotment garden too, in Dutch we call it 'volkstuin' (translated: people's garden). I think they are organised somewhat different than in the UK. But anyway there's a committee too, and rules ...
What a lovely child Agnes is. She’s grown so much. What nice children Kate has, too. I’m enjoying her family, too. Hope Kate is better soon. My mother had vertigo and it’s really difficult to get over it. Thoughts are with you.
Allotments are a paradise, wish we could have them in the States. Although they would probably rent for thousands a month, ha. I'm 78 but I can remember all my grandparents and aunts and uncles had backyard gardens and chickens in northern california. Anyway I so enjoyed watching Kate's family and hope she is doing well as we miss her here on the couch.
Thank you Martha ,Adam and of course Agnes. Agnes is going to grow up with a multitude of skills. Loved this Martha, you are certainly doing well with your Allotment. I loved the flower arrangement in your home with the Dahlias. I think Kate mentioned you grow them yourself. They are gorgeous, love all the colours. When it is the right season, I would love to see a video of how you have achieved to grow these flowers, if that is possible please. Kate you must be so proud of all your family. Looking forward to seeing you when you are able Kate. Thank you. xxx
Thank you Martha, it was lovely to see your allotment, and nice it was that Agnes was enjoying the veg. Send my wishes to Kate
Thank you so much Adam, Martha & little bit Agnes - all of you are just wonderful to share this peek into your world. Your allotment is fantastic and everything looks delicious! I gasped when I first saw Martha and see Kate in your face! Hoping she is well and on the mend! xo
You have a beautiful allotment. I always went with my dad and my Uncle Sid to their allotment and until the last few years have grown lots of veg, kept chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys. I used to help my dad prepare both chickens and chrysanthemums for showing. This was in the days when you boxed them up and put them on the train, in the guards van, and someone from the show would come and pick them up. Now I have quite bad arthritis and the poultry and the veg have gone by the way. But it was lovely to watch you in yours and relive a bit of the pleasure you get from eating what you have grown with your own hands. Thank you x
SO SWEET! I was thinking - all your veg that comes home must have a small 'chomp' from Agnes!!! The image of your flowers against that gorgeous blue wall was AMAZING! I stopped the video just to take it all in - so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your allotment and it was lovely to get to know you better - we hear so much about you! Love to Agnes! xx
Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden with us. Agnes is a fabulous future gardener. I hope your mom is feeling better soon. I miss her and her lovely way of the world.
Martha, I love your name. That was my mom's name. She is in heaven now, miss her so much. You have a wonderful mother, Kate is so talented and down to earth. I wish I could go visit her and learn so much from her. I know how she feels with vertigo. I got it on a plane trip back to South Carolina from Hawaii. I thought I was dying or the plane was going down. A doctor trip as soon as we got home. It was awful. Pray she will be back to happy self soon. Thank you and John for helping. 🌺🌷😽😊
Nothing makes lovingly homegrown veg taste better than to have it pre-nibbled and lightly mauled by a toddler!😅❣️😇🥰
Thank you for this lovely view and visit, send it best to Kate. I have had vertigo and empathize!
so refreshing to see a child allowed to get dirty and investigate her world without a wipe in sight. loved the whole video thankyou.
Wonderful seeing Martha and Agnes enjoying the allotment! Only thing better would be if you Kate were there with your wonderful family! Please take care of yourself and come back to us when you are ready...love to you and your wonderful family.
🤗 Glad you are doing better Kate. Thank you to Martha, Adam, and Agnes for a very interesting video. Nice of you to share the allotment idea with us! Take care all.
This was soooo adorable in every way! Thank you Martha, Agnes & hubby for sharing your lives with us! Wishing you well Kate~take care of you, hydrate with lots of H2O and rest! Xoxo
That was lovely, thank you three for showing us a bit about your allotment and a snippet of your days. And Agnes, of course! We have community gardens in the communities here in Maine, available in most towns. Some of the private buildings in the city have garden spaces on their roofs for tenants too. It’s lovely to have the produce.
Thank you for filling in and showing us your allotment. I live in the US (grew up on a farm) and seem to have a bit of a fascination with allotments. I follow Jessie at Plot37 so have learned a lot from her. It is wonderful for Agnes to grow up learning about growing food and taking care of the poultry at Grandma’s house. Nothing better for a kid than to learn where food comes from, to pick and eat veg right off the plant, to get dirty and eat some dirt. It’s good for the mind and the immune system. Looking forward to seeing the allotment through the various seasons. Cheers!
Wow, amazing to see this very special garden. And people. And, sounds just like Kate. Yes. So sorry about Kate’s vertigo, but the silver lining has been these 2 very special looks at different lives and areas of Britain. Thanks for being so thoughtful! Get well quick!!
Thank you for the tour Martha, Adam and Agnes! You have a great allotment. And yes you are so much like your Mum which as you know is a huge compliment!
Love love love seeing Martha and baby Agnes. Thank you for explaining allotments. Such a wonderful system. Your family is so very lovely. Thank you!
So happy to see Martha and sweet Agnes although wish it wasn't because Kate is not quite up to par. Sending good wishes for a complete recovery. Kate is very lucky to have such a wonderful family close to help.
Feel better Kate!! My mom would get vertigo and it would take a while to go away but it always did. Martha your garden is just beautiful! Agnes looks like she loves it!!
Martha Agnes & Adam thank you for showing us your amazing allotment & poly tunnel & Agnes for entertaining us
Martha you are so like your Mum !
I hope she is recovering well it is horrid 😩
Wonderful video Martha and Adam. Lovely to see your allotment and your vegies. The flowers were absolutely beautiful.
Martha you were so natural and so like Kate in your relaxed manner. Great job 👏
Missing you Kate but so nice to get to know your children more, especially Martha whom we don’t see as much. Thank you for showing us your allotment and the yummy veggies! Agnes is adorbs.
Thank you, Martha! This is a wonderful video. Please give your mum my best! We are here on the lime green couch whenever she returns!
Get well soon Kate.. no hurry we'll all still be here for you and thanks to your wonderful family we're all still in the loop as to what's happening in your life and theirs. Much love Lynne (Sunderland) xx💐💐💝💐💝
Agnes is adorable. She is now learning all the skills to be self sufficient in growing her own food. That is the best gift you can give a child.
Hi Martha ,it is nice to meet you and your family.
You have done a lovely job on your allotment,incorporating all those beautiful ,veggies and flowers!
Little Agnes loves those veggies!
Sending prayers for your mom to heal fast!
Dear Kate, hope your equilibrium gets back to normal soon. Love seeing Martha and darling Agnes in your absence. Take care and looking forward to see you soon.
Thank you Martha, Adam and Agnes. Such an enjoyable video. Kate I hope you are feeling much, much better ❤️ Barbara
What a lovely way for a child to grow up- knowing where her food comes from and how much better it tastes fresh!! So much beauty and healthy flavor. All those lovely nutrients going into her body from the time she began eating solid food I'll bet.
Agnes is such a beautiful soul and love seeing her enjoy gardening and getting involved. I try to get my grandchildren involved in our little homestead. Kate has such a beautiful family. I hope Kate is feeling better soon, I so love her viedos and look forward to them. Lots of peace and love to yall from small town Virginia USA. 🥰
Really enjoyed the allotment tour with Martha and Agnes today. Enjoyed dinner with the family too! What a lovely family for Agnes to grow up in! Hope you’re feeling better soon Kate! I’ll be waiting to share a cuppa and a bit of a chat with you, on the lime green sofa. It would be lovely if Martha could join us for a cuppa! Love and hugs to all! 🥰
Such a lovely visit in the garden. My mouth was watering as Agnes chomped away. Much love to Kate as she mends. I’ve had a bout of vertigo once only in my life, some 20 yrs ago, which lasted a fortnight. I never want to have it again. 😘
Someone inherited Kate's greenthumb! Beautiful garden.
