Allotments hold top Open Evening
Plot owners showcased the variety of produce grown on the site and visitors found out about how allotments can contribute so much to community life, as well as providing somewhere to get away from the stresses, strains and demands of everyday life.
Visitors also enjoyed the range of activities during the open evening provided by Mid Ulster District Council staff and TCV (The Conservation Volunteers), ranging from sowing vegetables and wildflower seeds to potting up herbs and making bee homes to attract pollinators into the garden.
