A gardener who grew produce on her land to help feed others in need got her land salted. She has vowed to continue and has a GoFundMe account that is doing well.
Must be devastating… what is wrong with some people!

What a nasty, sick-minded and vindictive thing to do - how do people grow up to be so mean-spirited and anti-social.

That is dreadful, there are some really wicked people about
It sounds targeted at at her, someone jealous of her success, maybe.
It sounds too well planned for just vandals and I’m not sure your average vandal would know what salt did to soil anyway
It definitely sounds like someone who wants to stop her growing stuff and knows how. Another allotment owner, maybe?
My worry would be that even if she does replant in topsoil this year, they might strike again
Maybe they need some sort of security camera?
Terrible that it should be needed though

It’s also a huge amount of salt. Someone had to plan to buy that much salt.

5kg isn’t that much, really but it would be worth asking local shops off they can remember anyone buying
3 bags of this?

I don`t get some people,why on earth would someone be so nasty,i can only assume they are jealous.
If they were ever found nothing would be done.
I would put some sort of CCTV close by ,we have a camera that is camouflaged behind a bush,it picks up movement of any kind and records it,then you download it.

Doesn’t sound like young thugs antics to me, there are some strange oldies out there as well.
Some people are such jerks…
However, one day they’ll be without food and they’ll remember the day they did this despicable act…
Karma!

It must be incredibly tough to start over again.
I’m not sure that I’d have the resolve and courage to do so .

I’m assuming the terminology ‘salted’ means her allotment was revoked instead of 
walks off shaking her head at yet another lost in translation moment …
Hopefully they’ll get nicked.

I understand from colleagues and friends who have allotments that they are very political hotbeds of seething envy and sabotage. This probably isn’t unusual it’s just made public because of her social media campaign and cause.
they may have used a bigger salt pot…
