March 2010: Good News! A local landowner has offered Martley a portion of land off Berrow Road, close to Maylite Trading Estate. Three members of Martley Allotment Society met with the landowner in February to view the potential site. It was deemed highly suitable, so at last it looks like Martley will have its own allotments! The field in question is presently under cultivation, so we will have to wait until the autumn before we can go ahead with any preparation. The first job will be to fence the area off, and mark out paths etc. We expect this to take some time, but hope to offer plots to Martley residents in Spring 2011.
If you haven't already got your name on the list for a plot, please do so
now. We will be offering full-sized and smaller plots. Contact Angie Hill

Got your composting bin yet?
