The allotments are fallow now - we have had so much rain the soil is too heavy for any activity. It's good to see that there is still produce on the plots though. We hope you all enjoyed your Christmas sprouts! Before we know it Spring will be here, snowdrops and crocuses are out and we will soon be planting seeds for the new season.
Allotment fees are now due for this year. Please let us know if you want to continue renting your allotment. If you don't have one do you want to be added to the waiting list?
If you wish to know more about the allotments please contact Debbie or Andy on debbieellison1405@gmail.com.
MOWER NEWS
Would users please note that it is a 4 stroke machine and uses unleaded petrol from the green can. Please check the oil level and top up with the 4 stroke oil (also available) as and when necessary.
The strimmer uses 2 stroke fuel and this is available in the red can.
USE OF THE WRONG FUEL IN THE WRONG MACHINE WILL RUIN THEM, SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!!
Seed Catalogue
Each year seed catalogues are distributed to interested members.
Seeds ordered through the Association are at about 40% discount from the Dobies catalogue price.
There is provision for the delivery of manure to the allotments.
Because of the present demand for allotments, in future priority will be given to Wilsden residents over and above others.

Since 1976, Wilsden has had one of the best kept secrets ever. We have 26 allotments! Some are half plots, so many people are enjoying this facility. Each plot is about 30 x 8 meters. Water is available. There are 2 small huts for tool storage. On one of the huts there is a notice board and inside is a first aid kit. |
