Allotment gardening provides a wide range of benefits, both to communities and the environment.
As well as providing low-cost food and flowers, keeping an allotment can be a great way to stay healthy and meet people. Allotments often provide habitats for many forms of wildlife too.
We own several sites which are administered by allotment societies.
- King George V Playing Fields, Higher Walton.
- St John's Green, Leyland.
