It's National Allotments Week!
🍅🥕🥔🪴
For 20 years the National Allotment Society have been "raising awareness of allotments and their role in helping people to live healthier lifestyles, grow their own food, develop friendships & bolster communities". (Quoted text from NSALG website.)

Here’s our in store display table with our National Allotments Week product picks:

Did you know we have our own little growing space in front of Daily Bread that nurtures these principles too?

Going back a few years, Transition Cambridge set us up with an edible landscaping platform in the form of raised fruit/veg beds as part of their Growing Spaces project. Their volunteers transformed an area by our carpark into a space where the community can come and pick their own fruit & veg!

The raised beds are decorated with Jayne Ruffell-Ward’s beautiful steel sculptures as can be seen on the Growing Spaces website. We currently have fruit, veg, and herbs growing, so come and see if there’s anything ready and ripe for the picking!
