Publisher's Synopsis
A growing trend amongst young crowds, allotments create a certain kind of nostalgia. Buurman's photographs capture their essence and convey the enthusiasm and diversity of today's plot holders. Taken in Birmingham, at the UK's largest site, the images document the communal spirit allotments can evoke even today. In a time when people are looking towards self-sufficient lifestyles, the allotment is again becoming a centre for community, fun and food.
