Now's the time to apply for an allotment in Exeter - the number of people on the waiting list has fallen dramatically.
Last month just 131 people were waiting for a plot .. down from more than 800 last summer.
Exeter city council say it's because vacant allotments are being re-let much more quickly, and they are also dividing up some of them to make more manageable plots.
