Are you proud of your plot but too modest to enter it for the best plot of the year competition?
Well this year, after a long discussion at the AGM, the format of the competition is changing so people won’t have to put their plots forward for the title themselves.
Instead, all of our plots will be considered.
After preliminary inspections our judge, Denis Vickers, will visit the site to make the final decision on the winners of the Best Half Plot and Best Full Plot.
He will be carrying out the judging on Monday, July 17.
Entry to all the other competition categories will be exactly the same as usual. Full details to come later.
All the results will be announced at the summer barbecue on Sunday, July 23.
Good luck everyone! May the best plot win!
The next plot inspections are due to take place in the first week of June.
Just a gentle reminder that the speed limit at the allotments is 5mph.
Please make sure that you keep below that speed for safety reasons and out of consideration for people whose plots are alongside the site’s roads.
Thanks.

We need volunteers on Wednesday to clear old pallets and wood from the barbecue area to get it ready for laying hardcore and paving slabs.
If you are able to help please meet by the green container at 10am.
Thanks.
And one free chilli – an Aji Omnicolor.
The tomatoes are: Sub-Arctic Plenty; Crimson Crush; Bloody Butcher; Cocktail Crush; Santiam Sunrise; Azoychka.
They are just inside the greenhouse on Plot 31. Help yourself if you want some but PLEASE return the pots.
These tomato plants are on offer free of charge.
There are a number of different varieties, all labelled, in the cold frame in the middle of Plot 12.
Please help yourself if you want any.
There’s a barbecue at the allotments on Sunday, starting at 1pm. Everyone’s welcome.
But first, volunteers are needed tomorrow (Friday) to help put up the marquee. If you’re available please meet by the summer house at 11am.
Frogs feed on loads of the pests that damage our crops so, if you have a pond, you might like to give some tadpoles a home there.
To find out more about getting hold of some, contact Pearl Barton whose son has a pond full of them!
