Allotments

Allotments are very popular and in high demand for growing home grown fruit and vegetables. They can provide you with a new hobby and it doesn't matter if you are an experienced or novice gardener. Having an allotment allows you to:

  • grow fresh, local produce
  • grow organically
  • have a more active lifestyle
  • meet like-minded people

Spelthorne Council manage 10 allotment sites in the Borough. Each site has a volunteer representative who give their time to help run the site. They are a contact between the allotment tenants and the Council and they represent the plot holders’ interests, assist with site management, and support the allocation of plots.
