Growers Market
Hi Folks, Would you be interested in participating in this event, and trading your surpluses? It could be a very interesting day out. A minimum of 4 plotholders would suffice (but more would be better). Contact us on the guestbook, go to the bottom of the page to "comments" and leave us your contact details, your interest in attending, and your surpluses, We will not print your private details (just the basics, like "I am Simon, I have masses of courgettes") but pass them on to other interested plotholders. Regards, Joan.
Are you interested in Bee Keeping?
The Government are promoting bee keeping courses throughout the country, due to the serious decline of this valuable insect. Allotments are a perfect habitat, especially ones like ours (that are a bit untidy – but have lots of native wild species that you don’t see in manicured or lawned gardens, or manicured allotment sites).
We will be developing a wildlife area, with pond, on an abandoned plot at the back of the site. It will be fenced and gated. There will be room for possibly up to three hives. All we need are bee keepers. One of plotholders, Anne, has already applied.
Here is the email I received from Ken Wilson on 24th August.
Bee Training will be taking place from 4th September 2010 at 12.00pm with Paul Peacock at. Abbey Hey Allotment Hut,Abbey Hey AllotmentAckroyd Avenue,GortonM18 8TLand then every fortnight,Can you please book with Paul directly on @ PAUL PEACOCK <paul922@btinternet.com>and cc me in.If you have any other question related to previous training I'm sure Paul will be only to happy to answer your questions.
