However, my best memories of allotments in France are just off the River Somme near Amiens. It is an area of land with rich soils divided by narrow canals. Allotment plots draw Somme waters from the canals. Visits are by very narrow boats. I have seen allotments in Verrieres-le-Buisson which is just southwest of Paris.

Everybody with a small piece of land grows something or other. I'd love to share details of my allotmet if there was a blog spot. It's interesting to see the difference in the things I can grow out here that I couldn't in the UK. Here I've got cucumber, toms, peppers and aubergines all growing outside I live in Italy, and allotments have been around here for years.
