Vitamin G: the gardening tonic we all need

Anecdotal evidence of the benefits of allotment gardening for health & wellbeing have been reported over many decades & has evolved to become scientific fact.

Research on urban allotment gardens has shown the positive effects of experiencing green space on mental, social and physical wellbeing.

A more recent study conducted by the RHS, in collaboration with the University of Sheffield and the University of Virginia, now shows that the pleasure of gardening which derives from being with plants, and the physical exercise gained from it, equivalent of going to the gym, is good for body and mind.

‘You can’t overdose on it’, and the more you do the greater the benefit you get.

Keep taking the pills!
