Creating new allotments
We will find a new local site where people can grow their own food.
- Growing our own food may mean healthier eating and also reduces the emissions from production, transport, packaging and sale of some of the fruit, vegetables and other food that we eat
- Working on an allotment also provides good exercise and the opportunity to meet more people in our community
- Advice on how to start an allotment is available from sources such as Horticulture Magazine and the National Allotment Society
- For local councils there is also dedicated step-by-step guidance here
