With an allotment comes fresh air, home-grown produce, a healthy lifestyle and a social community of people with similar interests. There are 15 allotment sites across the borough.

All our allotment sites have waiting lists. You can go on up to three waiting lists of your choice, but you are only entitled to one plot.
