National Allotment Week (10 – 16 August) is just around the corner, and to celebrate, Havannah Lane Allotment will be hosting an Open Day attended by Mayor of St Helens, Councillor Steve Glover, with a tombola and various cake and vegetable stalls.
The national campaign raises awareness of the nutritional benefits of home-grown produce, and the positive effects that growing one’s own fruit and vegetables can have on physical and mental wellbeing.
Aside from delicious, additive-free and cost-effective food, allotments also produce a wonderful community spirit, so why not get involved at Havannah Lane, Winter Grove, Parr on Saturday, 22 August from 12 – 4pm.
