20 July 2008 - Elm Grove Allotment Open Day

The scarecrows were made by Shepperton Brownies.

An annual event which is designed to give members of the public an opportunity to see a working allotment. They are able to wander around the site freely and chat with allotment holders about their plots and the produce that they grow. Everyone is welcome, the young and the old and it is a fun day out, especially for children, many of whom may not even realise where carrots, potatoes and beans come from! The trading hut was open and some lovely cakes and biscuits were served up and it managed to stay dry... always a bonus!
