The Society's Secretary has been busy of late. The would be allotment holders, on the waiting list, have been contacted and are due to visit the allotments on Saturday 25th June 2011 at 1pm to learn of their obligations and cost to being a AWAS plot holders. Since the plots are so new the range of vegetables that can be grow will be limited to those that grow above ground for at least for the first season.
It has been decided that a condition of taking a plot will that the plot holders will be required to purchase and plant a fruit tree at the front of their plot. The vision is that in ten years time their will be fine avenue of blossom in the spring and fruit in the autumn. The existing plot holders did a similar thing when the long orchard was invented. Apple, Pear, Cherry are to be the choices. Trees rather than bushes are needed.
