There are allotment plots available at several locations across the city including; South Ward, near Redbridge, Cow Mead, Abingdon Road and West Minchery Farm, Littlemore and Cripley Meadow, Walton Well Road.

Plots costs vary but across the city the average is £25 per year (for 250m²).  Smaller sized plots are available at some sites. Why not share one with friends or relations, bring your kids along, or team up with neighbours to grow salads, potatoes, herbs or root vegetables.

Renting an allotment plot allows you to grow your own food, keep active and can be a sociable place to meet other people.
