This, That and the Other
You will find all sorts of different subjects on this page such as a foto album,
literary portraits of members and "lottie" tips. There are also gardening subjects
to read about. Hopefully the members will share their knowledge with the rest
of us now and then. We would like to hear about new seed types or a plant sort
that performs better and so forth. Describe how you deal with the various
garden pests you encounter.
Do you have info that you would like to share with others? Write it in an e-mail
or a letter and send it. If it's a normal letter, then write "to the attention of the
website" on the envelope and leave it in the Konkelboet, or simply click on
e-mail
Photo Album
Click on the photo album icon to the left to look at the photographs. There are
pictures depicting diverse aspects of the Association: examples of allotments,
gatherings/events, harvests etc. Photos are a good way of keeping memories
present and to show how things are on our complex. We have something to be
very proud of.
Garden Portrait Gallery
Meet your fellow members and see their allotments.
When you click on the icon to the left you will be taken directly to the portrait
gallery.
You may get a surprise visit from the interview team at your lottie to ask you for
permission to interview you and place the short story on the portrait page and to
take a couple of pictures. I hardly have to say it but of course it is completely
voluntary.
Would you like to introduce yourself? We will gladly come by your plot. Naturally
you can write the text yourself, if you like (no more than 300 words please) add
a digital photo of yourself and/or your allotment - place this in an envelope
(addressed to "Website" and leave it in the clubhouse, or email it all to us by just
clicking here. e-mail
