The next plot check will be on Sunday 21st April. We will be looking to see that plots are being regularly visited and 75% cultivated.
Please ensure your plot is clearly numbered and that borders are easily identifiable and paths are mown.
We will notify by email anyone whose plot is not numbered or needs attention.
The next work pary will be on Sunday 8th October 2-4 pm, carrying out work in the orchard area and other tidying jobs. To be followed by tea (please bring your own) and cake (all contributions welcome). Please attend if you can!
Please do not burn rubbish on the allotment site. Besides the risk of the fire spreading during this very dry period, smoke can be a real nuisance to those living in the area, particularly if they have respiratory problems. If you do have an abundance of green waste take it to Redbridge.
The change of policy was passed at the 2023 AGM.
This link is to the City Council’s guidelines for burning rubbish and you will see that the OCC’s preference for green waste is to have it composted.
Though the rules regarding Covid have been relaxed in England please use common sense when visiting the the allotments. Also, the NAS provide useful information that can be seen here
Most importantly, let us know if for some reason you cannot tend your plot.
