Events and activities
We want as many people as possible to experience the heritage of these incredible allotments by holding regular activity days, open days and gardener workshops. Our staff also lead guided heritage tours of the site, give talks and presentations to interested groups and take mobile exhibitions out into the community.
If you are interested in any of these please contact Helen or Mo at STAA.
