We’re moving into the dark half of the year, so it’s time to switch to earlier, shorter drop-in sessions to look after the garden throughout the autumn and winter. We’ve got warm and weather-proof kit if you need to borrow anything to keep you warm. It’s still beautiful out here all year round – join us if you can.

We run drop-in sessions every week with Agnes, Lisa and Hannah in the Community Allotments and Garden. If you’re looking for a way to learn about growing food… or to share the knowledge you have… or for community… or for some fresh air and gentle exercise… or to make a difference locally… or for a reason to get out the house – try coming along! Newcomers and beginners always welcome. Please try to arrive 10 minutes before the start time on your first day – after that, it’s drop-in anytime during the opening hours.

You can get involved with growing fruit and veg in the shared plot, wildlife habitat enhancements, and taking care of the wildflower mound and Community Orchard. Just come along on a Tuesday or Thursday afternoon and you’ll be welcomed in.

We’ve got outdoor work kit you can borrow, plus gloves, and we supply all the tools. Just bring yourself.
