Hi Ivan, everything happens for a reason, stay positive. Your van looks amazing we have an old 1998 van in Cumbria. You will love van life. hope everything goes smoothly to you and your partner xx

Go on ivan can you live on that site all year round we will support you through this everyone let's raise some money to help ivan this is horrible hoe the council has treated him probably paid tax all them years worked all he's life and he gets this in return ivan your welcome to use space at my allotment if you need to

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

Very kind of you and we will probably take a break away at the end of the season Thank you much appreciated

@Bessie66 5 месяцев назад

FFS totally empathic with you - we rent but luckily by a big private estate ( some tenants have been born and died in theses houses). They wanted to increase the rent by £70 last month (negotiated to £40 increase) for next 2 years but like you Ivan, went down the council route - no bloody chance! We too looked at the static caravan but bamboozled with permanent 12 month tenancy - such a mind field 😱 Banks and mortgage lenders really ought to take into consideration how long someone has paid into renting somewhere without arrears as security that they are good security for the future. Feel so sorry for young people nowadays - you have either got to be very rich or very poor - nothing for the hard working middle people 😢

The banks are owned by Blackrock/Vanguard,/Statestreet who fund all the NGO'S who control our Government and make policies, They plan to make it impossible to afford a house and they are buying up all the land and property to build their 15 minute Cities Or Ghettos, When Liebour get in who are also WEF controlled just like the current parasites in power there will be 15 million migrants imported into the country by 2030 to boost our economy and they'll tell us it will help the housing crisis.

@sal8454 5 месяцев назад

Bessie, so true. It’s us the hard working middle people that fund the country!

This is exactly what happened to me and my daughter. 10 years with a private landlord who decided to sell. I am disabled so the council did re house me and my daughter but i had to fight all the way for it. The system is so messed up. Good luck with your move. I think you made the right choice.

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

Sorry to hear you have to move, but good luck with the new site. I'm also moving (voluntarily) and am juggling pots and timing seedlings ready for the shift. I'm really looking forward to your future videos. I'm sure you'll show some great and ingenious ideas for terrific container growing in a small space. Best of luck. Cheers.

@Stephens8x6Workshop 5 месяцев назад

Ivan mate, the system sucks. I'm so glad you found a solution. I grow in raised beds but also many containers. I hope everything goes well for you. Hopefully you can squeeze onto the site a small greenhouse for starting off in (or a cut down section of your existing one). I've only been an occasional watcher but I've now, liked, subbed and rang your bell. When one door closes etc. I'll be watching mate. All the best.

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

@mrich1416 5 месяцев назад

Been through the same ourselves with a good old section 21 a couple of years ago You've done the right thing taking control. We did and it's great no longer worrying about landlords! I also put my name down for an allotment. Waited a while, but now been allocated one, so I agree with others that you might want to get your name down. Wishing you the very best and good luck to anyone else who is having to rent privately.

@jenniferdodds3980 5 месяцев назад

G'day Ivan, at 75 I shall be watching you with a very keen eye and taking on your ideas. I too am moving on from a 4-bed home on 1/4 acre to a ground floor property with a hankie size patch of lawn. Container planting has been on my mind as I move my 'stuff' so it'll be really interesting to see how you go plus what does and doesn't work, as the saying goes 'when life gives you lemons make lemonade'. Good luck and stay positive Jenny

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

Thank you Jenny much appreciated

@katedijkers7827 5 месяцев назад

Good luck Ivan with your move and new challenge. I hope you soon feel at home in Lincolnshire. Your positivitiy is very contagious and I'm sure your ideas for a container garden will inspire and motivate many others who have less space. All the best!!

@emalinedelapaix 5 месяцев назад

So sorry to hear that. We put ads in about 30 facebook groups and found a reasonably price house with a garden the size of several alotments with a private landlord. The house isn't perfect and needs a lot of work but we're grateful we have a place for now. Took us 6 months though so did the same as you, loads of container gardening. Good luck with your move ❤

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

#1 my heart is breaking for you and Ginny❤ #2 I'm so proud of your attitude and "can do" embracement going forward with so many limited options. Blossom where you're planted in it's truest form. Wish we all lived down the street and around the corner to help in any way we all could. Know I'm praying every day and we will see all the blessings that are going to come through this transition if we look for them. You both are in our hearts and know we are a grateful group of cheerleaders for you both....not just for what you do but for who you are.👍👍🙏

Oh I didn't know about this. It's been a while since I watched one of your videos. So sorry to hear, but I'm happy you found a suitable solution for you. Your new home looks great. I love caravans. You're very lucky that you're already very knowledgeable when it comes to gardening. You just need to transfer your knowledge to container gardening now. I'll be watching your new videos closely since the only gardening I do is in containers as well. Good luck with your new adventure. And may you have many many abundant harvests :-)

@Growyourowninacourtyard 5 месяцев назад

Good luck Ivan. My daughter and her partner live in a rented property and are dreading this happening to them or their rent being raised beyond their means. May I ask, can you live on the Caravan site all year around? I’ve been tempted to do this myself but worry that you can’t. I look forward to your container growing. It’s what I do in my small back yard.

SERCO have been offering private landlords 5 year contracts to house migrants and they will maintain the property and take care of everything. My son has been given notice to quit his private rental too. This has happened to a lot of people recently.

@ruthsmith2367 5 месяцев назад

Yes I’ve heard that to. It’s disgusting the way people are being treated by their landlords. They shouldn’t be allowed to terminate people if they have done no wrong, then get other people in for more money off the government. The government is making them homeless effectively. Time for a big change in power and I can’t wait.

@ibrstellar1080 5 месяцев назад

When Liebour get in they plan to bri g in 15 million migrants into the Country by 2030 so councils will be forced to reserve new builds for them so this will make it even garder to find rental properties.

I'm sorry to hear this but I'm glad that you got a positive mind about it all I'm luck that we are Housing Association but I don't blame you on buying a caravan iPhone is wanted to buy small better land and maybe get a caravan and living in it and doing what you said in this video I use for pots sometimes kids yoghurt pots and pot noodles was starting off and any see-through containers which have had meat in or giving a good wash out and I using for little greenhouses in my window

@ihallsworth 5 месяцев назад

So sorry for you mate. In terms of the council, same thing happened to me, They showed me a property that had wet rot, dry rot, damp and exposed electrics (My friend said that as the wet and dry rot met in the middle they canceled each other out) and when i turned it down they removed me. They also didnt tell me. I did wonder if they purposely never fix it as they show all single young males this property and then remove them of the list when they turn it down. Makes the stats look good and gives the anti social housing brigade something to add to their fire saying we are all selfish entitled gen x. (I predate gen x)

@bewoodford2807 5 месяцев назад

Are you allowed to have a wall greenhouse or two? I have 4 little lean to coldframes that I bought cheaply from Aldi. They have 4 shelves, made in wood and glazed with polycarbonate. Opening top window and 2 opening doors. They are great for protecting plants early on and then for growing tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and melons in. Good luck with your new life adventure. I am sure it will b fantastic and great to have your own place with no worries of ever being evicted or terrible rent rises. Happy gardening 🙂

@FreeYourMindArt 5 месяцев назад

So sorry to hear that you have to move out, it is a wonderful place to grow your own without an allotment. Make sure that you sell the greenhouses and get a few quid for them. A lot of landlords around here are selling up too and evicting tenants, Are you allowed to stay in the caravan all year through? A lot around here close for about 6 weeks. I wish you and the Mrs lots of luck and look forward to updates.

Hi Ivan, we had to move from a lovely house with a large garden, used to grow all our own veg and kept pigs and chickens in south Lincolnshire on the marsh about a mile from the wash. All we could afford was a 1 bedroom first floor flat with only a communal garden. We put our names down for an allotment and after two years got one. It’s eight miles away but it’s still our space and we can grow again. I have a little grow house which I’ve been allowed to put in the garden so I can sow in the flat and bring on in the grow house. Hoping I will be allowed to put a few pots in the same area so really interested to see how your containers do. I wish you all the luck in the world, I know how much it hurts to leave a lovely garden but we bounced back and I’m sure you will too. Love and blessings.

@annbarron606 5 месяцев назад

Oh I'm sorry hear about you having to move, I only had 6 weeks to move after only been there for 2 years. I cried all day on the day of move. Its been 5 years and I still feel it. But I kept busy and got to nesting again to make the new place home. Gardening is great for this. I really appreciate all you put up on youtube. When I had no garden, on the 1st floor, I was fortunate enough to have a small balcony. I filled it with lavender, strawberries, chives, nasturtiums and also had a blueberry bush. All containers. I love your positive attitude and taking control of the situation. Looking forward to see what you do in the new place.

Just half way through this video and wanted to say I’m so sorry for your situation; you must be gutted. Your positivity is inspiring. Your situation might actually help many fairly new gardeners. I, for one, look forward to more info on container gardening. Since last year I find I have a 60’ by 14’ concrete back yard but I have bought 6 large (by their standards) raised beds from B &Q and 20 large tubs (30 litres each) not to mention an endless supply of pots of various sizes so please know that the good Lord will bring good out of your awful situation. God bless Lyn

As ever Ivan you are a total inspiration, life gives you lemons-you really do make lemonade! Lets hope the good people of Lincolnshire embrace their newest inhabitants and that one just happens to have some spare land just big enough for a caravan and garden.

Congratulation on your new home. I hope you will be very happy there. Strangely enough my sister and her husband have just sold the bricks and mortar house they have lived in since getting married 40 years ago and they have bought a mobile home too. Hubby and I were thinking of buying one as a holiday rental too. Am sure you will make a success of growing there as well. Good luck with the move, hope it all goes smoothly. New beginnings and new adventures. Plus you can’t be evicted when you own it. Stay safe x

Im so excited to be a part of your new chapter in life Ivan, I love your channel and I also have limited space to grow and its all containers here so I look forward to watching your transition. One door closes, another opens, sometimes things are just meant to be no matter how shocking they seem. Best wishes, and see you again when you arrive in Lincolnshire 😊

Bit of a shock that Ivan, and I imagine very traumatic for you all. I will say though I will continue to follow the journey, and contribute to the channel, which is almost like and extended family, and I have picked up so many tips along the way even for an experienced gardener. You may need some help along the way and I am sure I speak for many when I say you only have to ask.

Well done and good luck in your new property! I was in a similar situation not too long ago, but very luckily, being fairly elderly, it didn't take too long to find a ground-floor flat _with_ a garden in a lovely national Housing Association over-55s scheme. Going down the council path was a dead loss altogether.

@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk 5 месяцев назад

If you want something doing as they say Thank you much appreciated

@Sine-gl9ly 5 месяцев назад

@@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk I have a friend of a similar age to me, with a disabled wife, currently going through it all - long-term private rental coming to an unexpected end. In his case, his landlord is willing and able to be flexible with timing so that gives him a bit more leeway. I suggested he try all the national Housing Associations for the elderly, and he might find there's something suitable. Another friend's brother, who is himself disabled, is also in a similar situation, in an entirely different council area. He is ex-forces, has PTSD and a support dog. His council could not have cared less; fortunately he got help through the British Legion, and has found a lovely rental where the landlord will _only_ have ex-forces tenants.

@susannice49 5 месяцев назад

Ivan I like all your subscribers am so sorry to hear how you and your wife have been treated. I am sure with your "glass half full" attitude you will be fine. As long as you both have good health, pots and some compost you will enjoy your new adventure. Is your new home further south than where you are at the moment? If so, enjoy the warmer temperatures🎉 Wishing all the best. Sue from Hastings

I have enjoyed your videos for a few years now. I learnt a lot from you. Thank you so much. Referring to your new accommodation keep some funds for insulation. You find a few videos on it. You probably need to get it done before the winter. The very best of luck on your new adventure. I will keep on watching. ❤☘️🪴🌶️
