Falmouth and District Allotments and Gardens Society

A couple of members have asked about keeping hens on their plot. This is permitted by the lease and the Town Council have issued guidelines and rules for doing this, with the well-being of the hens being the most important aspect. It is not an endeavour to be undertaken lightly. These regulations are similar to those of other allotment societies. Guidelines and an application form to do this may be found on the Society, Site and Rules page.

This was a great success with over 40 members exhibiting their produce and with nearly 300 items exhibited. The raffle and auction were well supported and it was great that so many people came along. Photos will be published shortly and in the coming newsletter with the list of winners.

Summer Show 2015 Hard copies and entry forms are available on Saturday mornings. The schedule may be viewed on the Summer Show page.

The Town Council has started to prune the trees in the boundaries. This has been a very drastic cut and with our concern for wildlife and nesting birds they have agreed to delay further work until the autumn.

This will be on Saturday 1st August at the Emmanuel Baptist Church. Entries may be made on the Wednesday and Thursday before the event, 5.30-7.00pm in the clubhouse. The schedule will be available for collection during the Saturday morning coffee and cake sessions in July.

This is now available on the newsletters page. There will be some hard  copies available on Saturday mornings.
