Benefits of Allotment Gardening

Allotments are good for the environment. Allotments are a great way of keeping fit and enjoying the fresh air. 


LAA is a really sociable Association so come and meet some new people and make new friends.  Allotments are a place to unwind, relax and take time out from a hectic life style. They can  be an enjoyable family activity or an opportunity for reflective solitude! 

Typical Commitment

Before adding applicants to our waiting list, we like to point out that there should be, on average, twice-weekly visits to your plot. This increases for watering in the summer. 


Between March and October you can expect to spend around four hours per week working one of our average-sized plots (six hours for one of the larger plots). During the winter months, two to three hours per week should suffice.  This is because the plot is required to be both productive and kept reasonably free from weeds, particularly during the summer months when grasses go to seed and encroach upon neighbours’ plots.  


Also, it is expected that the whole plot be kept properly worked all year round (requiring visits in all weather conditions) but during the first three months of your tenancy, only 25% of the plot needs to be cultivated with crops. 


If you are able to commit to the above undertaking, we will add you to our waiting list.
