Our Year 2020 Videos

Throughout 2020 we kept a diary of photos and videos, which we submitted as an entry in Ards Allotments Diary Competition.  We were surprised and delighted when we got the word that we won! Thanks very much to everyone at the allotments who make it such a wonderful community, and to Maurice and Judith the allotment owners. Below are the twelve videos - one for each month - that made up our diary entry:

We're in the Chronicle!

We were lucky enough to be one of several allotment holders featured in the Newtownards Chronicle newspaper in the week of 22 April 2021. It was brilliant to be able to share our enthusiasm for allotment gardening with more people, and even better to see some of the lovely people in our community share their own stories.
