Dear Plot holders,
Spring is here and with the warmer weather and longer days more of us are spending time at the allotments and starting to grow our summer crops. Let's hope that none of us are caught out by late frosts this year!
Tyres
Tyres can be useful around the allotment, and a number of plot holders are using tyres on their plots, but we need to ask that you do not bring anymore onto site. Don’t worry though, if you already have tyres on site you can continue to use them.
Skip
Following on from the Health and Safety inspection late last year, and recognising that the restrictions in place over the last year have made it difficult to get to the tip, the Committee have decided to book a skip enable plot holders to dispose of waste from their plots. The aim is to remove broken glass, plastic sheeting, rubble and other similar waste from the allotment site. Please don’t add timber, tyres or organic matter that can be composted. We hope to have the skip on site in time for this coming Bank Holiday weekend and will confirm the dates as soon as they are known.
Plot Inspection
Plot inspections take place biannually and the next one is planned to take place on Sunday 6th June. The inspections will focus on cultivation and general tidiness of your plot. The rules on cultivation are included under Section 4 of Schedule A in your Tenancy Agreement.
The annual judging of ‘Best Plot’ will take place in July - date to be confirmed.
Site Security
There have been a few recent incidents of unauthorised access to the site, including an attempted shed break in. To help avoid further incidents
- Keep your allotment tools in locked storage to avoid them being used to break in or cause damage on the allotments.
- Keep the site gate closed all times, even when others are on site
- If you are last to leave the site please lock the gate behind you.
Kind Regards,
Debbie, Plot 14b, Treasurer
