I don't know if you are aware of the current situation with regard to Edge Lane Allotments?

As it stands we have had the all clear from the secretary of state to regenerate the allotment site. Eamonn  O'Rouke, head of parks and leisure,  has spoken to me and has said they are just waiting for the legal side of things to be finished then we will have written confirmation that the CPO (Compulsory Purchase Order) has been withdrawn.

So!!!!!!!! 

We are looking for help with skips, storage cabins,greenhouses, sheds,any gardening equipment, green house glass , any composting bins, recycling bins for household rubbish, you imagine 88 plots with family's recycling there household waste for compost thats a lot of waste saved from the landfill.

We also have a very large disabled plot thats in need of a greenhouse or pollytunnel and a skip so we can get the place tidy again.

Any help with funds or equ ipment would be a great help. We only have 4 plots left now after the advertiser helped us with a free advert.

 For more information contact Patrick Maher, Plot Steward on 07977672146.

Hi everyone Its patrick Maher from Edge Lane Allotments

I 'm just trying to find out if anyone from the local community would be interested in a day out to the Harrogate flower show? We are trying to run a trip from Edge Lane Allotments on Sat 13 September, we would like to book a 52 seater coach and if we can fill it I think the total cost with entrance fee would be around £25 ish. So if anyone is interested and would like to call the secretary Sharon Comer on 07962110066 so we can get an idea of numbers, that would be great.

If this one is a success then maybe we could run some more next year.

Thanks very much and have a nice day.
