About this objectPaperback book titled Raising Spirits: Allotments, well-being and community by Jenny Mollison, Judy Wilkinson and Rona Wilkinson.

Blurb: "Allotments are the unsung story of our times; hidden places for food, friendship and freedom from the conformity of everyday life. Sites vary but most encourage plotholders to blossom by developing their creativity and skills. The authors take us on a fascinating journey where we learn how allotments came about; why they can make such a substantial contribution to health, well-being, community, food production, and the environment; and what's happening with allotments in other countries."
