Eco Defenders - After the Storm
03rd March 2022
In: General News
Following the ravages of storm Eunice, where fortunately much of the allotment site escaped reasonably lightly, a group of willing volunteers from the Eco Defenders group which meets on a Saturday morning could be seen around the site, collecting and picking up litter, not just from the fence lines but from the principal roadways across the site.
On behalf of the Association and fellow plot members, a huge thank you to Carolin and the team for all the effort undertaken on what remained a pretty blustery day.
The Wilderness Foundation Uk charity run a 6 plot community allotment, 'Down to Earth Allotment', within the site. Carolin Rogers runs a childrens allotment group there on a Saturday morning teaching young people how to grow their own but also help them connect to nature and taking on stewardship of their local environment. Litter picking is a very practical and tangible way to help keep our environment healthy and safe and can promote a greener way of living.
