Allotments improved

Over the last few years we have supported Grimesthorpe Community Gardens Group in their aim to have all the plots on the site tenanted and producing local food. The DIG Team has been busy all January cutting down giant hedges, knocking back brambles and combating weed growth on sixteen uncultivated plots that are now ready for working.

We are keen to hear from local food producers, those who grow a tomato plant or two to experienced gardeners who work their home gardens or allotments. We can offer help and advice, hire of garden tools and machines from our Tool Bank and the opportunity to share ideas and tips with other gardeners. Beginners and experts alike are invited to join our Burngreave Gardeners group and benefit from mutual support.
