Welcome to our web site. We hope that you will find it interesting and informative. Our site has been turned round from a near derelict site in the early 1990's into a thriving fully tenanted site. We are self managed and have a very active committee that strives to ensure that our plot holders and visitors have a wonderful time whilst on site

| The shop is open to the public at weekends from 11.00am - 3.30pm. Membership is £1.00 per year or 50p per year for the over 60's. For this modest fee you can buy most of your garden requisites including bird seed and nuts, compost and fertilizers. |

Throughout the growing season we sell the appropriate vegetables to be planted out such as onion sets and potatoes, available in February and March. We grow other vegetable from seed and also sell bedding plants in the summer.
|
We are a site of approximately 80 plots with toilet facilities including disabled, tarmac road and water supply.. New plotholders are issued with a welcome pack, including information on getting started. Although we have a small car park, most plotholders make room for parking on the front of their plots.
We are affiliated to both National Society of Allotment and Leisure Gardeners and the Birmingham and District Allotments Council. |

We raise money for our local charities by holding a summer Fayre. Home made cakes and jams are on sale, also bottle tombola, raffle and face painting for the younger ones. We have a similar event before Christmas which of course includes Father Christmas |
