The Allium Alliance – Children’s Book | Andy’s Allotment
Step into the allotment and meet The Allium Alliance — a brave group of garlic, onions, and leeks working quietly beneath the soil.
In this gentle, story-led children’s book, Andy and his robin companion discover how these powerful plants protect the garden in their own unique way. With their strong natural aromas, the Alliums help keep unwanted pests away, creating a safer space for everything else to grow.
