Is the allotment good for you?
Is an allotment good for you?
There are a lot of reports that state gardening is good for you for fitness as well as mental health…..
Well I personally have to agree with this statement.
This is because you are growing fruit and vegetables that are note covered in chemicals they are all grown naturally with not much intervention from chemicals to help make them grow and keep longer.
In regards to fitness this is completely true as you are constantley digging up weeds and excericising while weeding. I wear a fit bit and its amazing how many calories you burn while down on the allotment and gardening.
As for mental health. I personally have to agree with this as I find my allotment a place where I can relax, and enjoy the fresh air around me. You can enjoy the peace and quiet around you and also listern to the wildlife.
Do you think Allotments are good for your health and well being?
