Holgate allotment Shed and plot clearance
Make the plot usable for a new tenant
Saturday 31st January
10:30am - 11:30am
About the task
Holgate Allotments have a plot complete with cluttered shed to clear, so that they can once again make the plot clear for future growers.
10 Red Knights of the Realm of York have already made a start... read all about it in the Firey Tale of Olde York for more information about what could be in store.
It's a perfect post parkrun and pre-brunch workout... and a big job so the more the merrier :)
Don't forget your gardening gloves!

This session supports the organisation Holgate Allotment Community Orchard and Apiary
Transforming an overgrown and unused allotment plot into an orchard and public space for the local community to enjoy.
Holgate Allotment Association are a volunteer group of allotment holders who try to make Holgate Allotments a great place to socialise and grow veg. We have an allotment plot on the boundary of our site which is unused and completely overgrown but which we think will make a lovely orchard and wildlife area with seating for the local community to enjoy. Clearing the site will be a massive task, but it's one we want to embark on this Autumn. Can you help?
