News from our Secretary.
With the help of the Town Ranger, this Wednesday we successfully erected the new fencing along the top end of the site from the shed to the bottom corner and along the back of Plots 24 to 27 up to the houses. Many thanks to all those members of the working party for their hard work and effort on the day. Much appreciated. We still have the top 2 strands of wire to attach but the main fencing is up and secure. We can now begin to focus on addressing the security issues around the main gate and Laburnum Road fence.
For those who like their gardens, Sutton Parish is running an open garden weekend, details of which are on our notice board and through this link:

Christ Church on Great King Street is taking part in a Heritage Open Day on Saturday 11th September, the theme of which is Edible England.
Macclesfield Plant Swap, who have a stall regularly in Roe’s Garden, will hopefully be there and members of the public will be invited to bake traditional harvest sheaves to display in the church.
The allotment sites are invited to have a table to show/sell produce at the event. If your allotment site would be interested in taking part please contact Diane Smith at Roenaissance theroenaissanceproject@gmail.com to find out more.
