Allotment Diaries Podcast
EP.45 | Special Guest: Louise Third MBE, an Allotmenteer in Nottingham.
In this episode, Amy and Chay have the pleasure of speaking with Louise Third MBE, who at the age of 60 took on an allotment in 2020, prior to the pandemic. They discuss how she came to own an allotment plot, the challenges she faced, and the benefits to her mental and physical health.
Louise also discusses her growing season in 2024 and the highs and lows of owning an allotment plot thus far.
We also learn a little bit about Louise and the incredible charity work she has done, which has earned her an MBE, as well as her plans for the future.
Louise should be an inspiration to many people because she has demonstrated that it is never too late to start something new.
