With an increase in allotments being given up, mainly due to wet weather throughout 2019, we decided we needed to raise awareness about the benefits of having an allotment. We produced a poster, an advert for the Parish magazine and published an article on Tattenhall Online. The response was amazing. By April not only had we filled 14 empty plots but accrued a waiting list of 6. Newcomers to the site have been enjoying the benefits of an allotment and made ‘a lot new friends’.
