GREEN ALLOTMENTS

Registered charity 1200535 · accounts filings on the Charity Commission register

We aim to create new allotment sites around the UK. Working mainly with volunteers we identify suitable sites for new allotments which will build community, help people learn about growing their own food. New allotment sites will also reduce waiting lists and increase biodiversity. We work with the National Allotment Society and local authorities.
