A little more information about allotments
Allotment gardening is somewhat of a British institution and we're more than happy to provide quality sites, as is a statutory requirement. A great way for families and individuals to grow their own organic food, they're also wonderful areas for socialising, enjoying local wildlife and providing:
- low cost food
- organic fruit
- home grown flowers
- recreational space
- healthy activity
- social space
- wildlife habitation
