{"product_id":"a-garden-by-the-sea-copy","title":"A Year in the Allotment","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Year in the Allotment is a small-format record of looking closely. Published by Black Lodge Press in 2024, it’s a 32-page A6, two-colour riso zine documenting a year on an allotment in North Yorkshire. That scale matters. Nothing here needs to be inflated into pastoral fantasy or lifestyle content; the pleasure is in the smaller shifts—weather, growth, waiting, repetition, the slow visual logic of things coming in and out of season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe riso format suits the subject perfectly: modest, tactile, slightly irregular, close to the pace of note-taking rather than polished display. It reads less like a guide and more like a quiet accumulation of attention. A gardening zine, yes, but also a study in rhythm, labour, and the kind of visual patience allotments seem to teach better than most things.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Different than Magma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55536535241080,"sku":"x8356","price":6.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0285\/4760\/files\/Screenshot_2026-04-21_at_13-25-54_a_year_in_the_allotment_-_Google_Search.png?v=1776774668","url":"https:\/\/magma-shop.com\/products\/a-garden-by-the-sea-copy","provider":"Magma","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
