Allotments
As part of our
approach to healthy living, we have a number of allotment sites
with over 400 plots throughout Ashford that residents find
very popular. Plot sizes are approximately 125 sq. m and
currently cost in the region of £20.00 per year. We
offer free use of allotments to residents claiming certain
types of benefit and for those residents in receipt of state
pensions. All our allotment sites have water points.
To help allotment holders to gain the most from their plot, the
Allotment Forum runs a seed shed from their
Westrees Site which offers a wide range of products
at discounted prices.
The Allotment Forum holds regular meetings to discuss allotment
matters, each site is able to have a site representative who speaks
on behalf of their site. Allotment tenants are welcome to
attend these meetings to listen and observe, although they are not
able to participate in the meeting.
To discuss matters relating to allotments, please email
allotments@ashford.gov.uk or
contact the allotment officer on 01233 330476.
