Down on the Allotments

Allotment Holders have been once again working hard to

tame their plots from weeds by using weed suppressant

material to cover their plots and growing through small

holes cuts into the material to grow their crops – less

time spent weeding – great news. Making raised beds

from recycled wood also seems very popular this season

to grow their crops in, these new innovated ways seems

to be very popular as allotment holders pass on to others

their new ideas.

Lots of growers have been taking advantage of the use of

poly-tunnels being approved by the committee expanding

what can be grown with the help of these tunnels adding

tomatoes, cucumbers, chilies, pepper, salad items, there

is even a few allotment holders growing melons and figs

as a more unusual exotic crop. We look forward to the

allotment holders having some good produce on display

at the Village Show this year held on the 9th

September.

On the social side of things, the allotments held their first

barbecue of the season on 1st May, being the first

barbecue we invited ‘Jackie Bush’ Chair of the Parish

Council to formally open the community area and the

flower garden around it, which was built in memory of a

very Special lady Mrs. Heather Hodges, this event was

made even more special when Heather’s husband,


15 | P a g e

children and grandchildren turned up to see the garden

and join in the event.

Although the weather decided to throw all it had at us on

the day, Allotment holders are a hardy bunch and just

laughed in the face of the passing thunder storm, the

black sky’s empting its clouds of its contents plus a little hail thrown in for good measure, we took temporary

cover in the marque and the sun parasols, and carried on

eating, drinking and chatting until the sun came out again.

A good time was had by all and I know new friendships

were made amongst like-minded people; we are looking

forward to another community barbecue this summer.

If you would like to join in the fun and start growing your own fruit and vegetables please contact Martin Dolton (Parish Clerk) on 07399523961.
