A plot of your own
Always longed to have a patch of green to call your own? Wish you could grow your own vegetables, fruit or flowers? Then an allotment could be the answer.
Today, the demand for allotments continues to increase as more people become concerned about chemicals and genetic engineering used in farming.
Help the environment
Having an allotment garden gives you the opportunity to learn about, appreciate and improve the environment.
Many varieties of plants are grown on such sites, which contributes to the biodiversity of the area, providing vital habitats for wildlife. This also helps to keep alive strains of edible plants that are no longer commercially available.
Bury has 510 allotments at 25 locations. Of these, over half are self managed.
Most allotments are for the growing of fruit, vegetables and flowers, but a few sites are available for keeping livestock.
