Allotments
The Town Council manages two allotment sites – Foxes Piece ( SL7 1XX ) and Hanging Hill ( SL7 2PJ )
If you are interested in growing your own vegetables & fruit, you may want to consider taking on an allotment. It’s a great way to produce your own food, get some fresh air and enjoy meeting new people.
First, consider how much time you can realistically commit to your plot each week. If you work full-time or have other commitments, be mindful of the amount of time you have available and the distance you need to travel to your allotment site. It is recommended to visit your plot at least twice a week to stay on top of weeding and other maintenance tasks. During the growing season, you may need to visit more frequently for watering and harvesting.
