New Plots Project

Due to there being a waiting list for plots, we are keen to create new plots where there is available land.

In Autumn 2012, the plot holders got together and went to work reclaiming some wild area at the top of the allotment site. The goal was to get new plots created, a new bee/apiary strip and a refreshed wildlife area.

This work was a big challenge as the area is big, but with help from locals and all the plot holders, we were bound to suceeed. This page will journal how they got on.
