Open Day 6 September 2026

What a fantastic day we had once again! Our annual allotment open day brought together plot holders, neighbours, friends and families to celebrate our wonderful growing community.

​

Visitors enjoyed wandering through the plots, chatting to our gardeners, and discovering the hard work and creativity that happens here all year round. This year’s highlights included our ever-popular scarecrow competition, a table full of homemade cakes, jams, chutneys and crafts, plus a busy raffle and tombola. Delicious refreshments—tea, coffee, sandwiches, pies and plenty of cake—kept everyone going.

​

Children got stuck into nature with a bug hunt and had their say in voting for the winning scarecrow! And of course, no one went home empty-handed, with plenty of fresh allotment produce available to take away. It truly was a day full of community spirit, conversation, good food, and garden fun for all ages.
