Talk:Allotment (gardening)

message: Who assigns the parcels? Who organizes the growers into an association?
How much of this is voluntary? And are growers allowed or forbidden to sell surplus food they grow?
Its all voluntary as a rule. also you should not sell surplus food it depends on your tennency agreement most places it is against the rules. --Andham2000 21:27, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: the answers to all those questions vary according to management, different polies, contracts, etc. The one we rented when we lived in Germany technically disallowed sales of the surplus--their goal was to provent comercial farms from snaping up the parcels--but there were plenty of little notes tacked up offering sale or trade of surplus' on the fences, which they ignored. They were bigger sticklers about weed control (weeds spread to the neighboring parcels), what you could or couldn't use on the soil (one section was organic and they aimed to keep it that way), and that you actually used it for gardening (some people used theirs for storage and just stuck a couple tomatoes in for show).   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.251.53.8 (talk) 02:30, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

message: do not merge community gardens with allotment gardening:
Why you say? Because Community Gardens and allotment gardens are not one and the same. Everyone can work in a community garden - it's a free for all, whereas allotment gardens are more about splitting up land to only be used by certain people, which is not what happens in community gardens. allotment gardening is a form of gardening in the community, but it's more exclusive.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.108.78.157 (talk) 04:15, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Do not merge. Allotment holders have a contract to garden, whereas community gardeners do not. Also, in allotments, there is often a rule that you cannot visit other plots without permission. Gordo (talk) 08:28, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: You're free to open a new section to discuss a merge or whatever other topic related to the article you would like. New sections are defined by two = signs on either side of the heading. Community gardening in the United States does make the point that a majority of US gardens use an allotment /assigned plot system, but a lot of content in that article is unreferenced.Dialectric (talk) 13:54, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

message: There are several issues with the 'Canada' section. First, it cites no references. Second: in Toronto there are both <ref="https://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=8148dada600f0410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD">community gardening</ref> and <ref="https://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=aa16c0e9f7301410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD&vgnextchannel=0a4adada600f0410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD">allotment gardens</ref>. Allotments are owned by the city and residents pay for permits to use them. Community gardens are on private land and part of a legal structure to create a 'community garden'.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.225.38.223 (talk) 18:02, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

message: While having the correct images that correspond to the subject of the article (i.e. showing what would be Russian allotments), the actual text largely relates to a different term - 'Russian dacha'. Furthermore it also mentions villages.
I'd like to point out that in Russia an allotment, a dacha, and a village house are three quite distinctively different types of property and the terms are not arbitrary interchangeable.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:17D0:182:B00:AD67:B8B7:1EA7:21E (talk) 15:06, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
