🐸🌻 πŸ… Thankfully, more + more allotment gardeners are choosing to garden without using pesticides or herbicides. We agree with them. Allotment sites are for the future, not just the present. Prof Goulson's evidence sums up exactly why pesticides have no place on Allotment sites (or anywhere else) πŸ¦”πŸ“πŸ

More and more allotment gardeners are chosing to garden without using pesticides or herbicides. We agree with them.
Our allotment sites are for the future, not just the present.
Our model of allotment provision protects Allotment Site Land from development.
This means communities have space to grow food 🐝πŸ₯•πŸ₯’πŸ…

At Green Allotments, we don't do huge 'mega sites'.
We want our allotment sites to be part of the community, to fit in, and enhance the local area. 🀲 🀲🏽 🀲🏻
🐸🌻 πŸ… An allotment site should be a place everyone is proud of πŸ¦”πŸ“πŸπŸŒ±
🐸🌻 πŸ… This is community-led management of local green spaces.
To 'give something back' we do not charge land rent to the allotment society.
Plot rent paid to the society by each plotholder on the allotment site can be reinvested back into the allotment site.
A sustainable future for Allotments πŸ¦”πŸ“πŸπŸŒ±

We need more #Allotments right now, in place, ready for now and for our future generations. We buy land for new allotment sites, because we know that they are needed not just for the 1000s of people on allotment waiting lists, but for the people who are to come, who will also want to grow their own
Long waiting lists, no big national plan...allotment sites at risk of development...allotment rents increasing (some over £300 🀯)...Our response "Lets buy some land, set up allotment sites, do it as non-profit..." 2024 OUTCOME: Two new #allotment sites up for grabs from Green Allotments CIO.
Thank you for sharing info about our Green Allotments charity🌱🌻 πŸ
