Whoever you are, whatever you do, find your own reason for becoming an Allotment Holder

It's a great way to:

• get into shape
• get lots of fresh air
• Exercise
• Fresh fruit and vegetables
• Meet other people
• It can help out with the family budget

Did you know it only costs approximately £10 a year for an allotment where you could grow enough vegetables to feed a family of four?

Allotment trading huts sell seeds and fertiliser a lot less than buying from your local cut price superstore YOU control what you eat!

YOU decide what to grow YOU know what chemicals, if any, are used YOU control when and how it is harvested YOU know it's fresh!

You can grow unusual fruit or vegetables which may not be easily obtained locally.

Growing your own cuts down on use of transport and is more environmentally friendly

Keeping an allotment will help protect that allotment for use by future generations.

Whatever turns you on to allotments... the biggest benefit of all is the taste of REAL fruit and veg.
