You & Yours Allotment
Get Digging

Whether trying to save a bit of money, do something for your community, or just passionate about growing things … are you trying to turn an overgrown lump of land into a flourishing green space providing vegetables and community spirit? We want to hear from you.

Is the red tape strangling your efforts to get your allotment to grow? Are the volunteers flagging? Do you have the enthusiasm without the know-how? Perhaps we can help get your community allotment off the ground.

Over the next months we'll be exploring the pitfalls and highlights of getting an allotment to bloom and would be interested in hearing from you. Let us know about your efforts to get a community allotment started.

You can follow the progress of one allotment online with our photo gallery

It's part of the BBC Dig In campaign to get all of us, whether we've a windowsill, balcony, garden or allotment to start planting. Dig In is offering a free seed starter pack and advice.
