Allotments are plots of land that are made available for individual, non professional gardening.
Allotments have lots of benefits, including:
- Community: better quality of urban life.
- Environment: conservation of biotopes.
- Families: meaningful leisure activity teaching children where food comes from and how it is grown.
- Green Issues: self sufficiency.
- Sense of achievement: grow tasty, organic food on your doorstep.
