Warwickshire Drooper Plums

Could we ask you all to please be careful around the base of all the Warwickshire Drooper plums as we will be lifting as many of the self set suckers as we can in order to try and establish new trees/community orchards and we are also currently talking with a National Heritage orchard scheme who may be interested in taking stock, many thanks.

 

Activity Around the Site

9th October

You will have seen quite a bit of activity recently with a large number of wildlife and conservation organisations being shown around – we are working on some major initiatives to further enhance and protect our delightful allotments.

You will also be seeing quite a few improvements being made to the fencing and hedging and some additional security being added to the gates. This is being undertaken by RBC as part of the conditions that we put in place prior to our signing.

Also a large number of plots are currently being strimmed down by RBC to prevent seed spread and will be re-strimmed and ploughed upon takeover so that we are able to offer clean pots from the outset.

Launch Date Is Getting Close

9th October

We are very close to signing all the documents for the transfer from Rugby Borough Council to the new association – we will be signing in November ready for a December start date. Current plot holders will not receive any further bills from RBC. The payment for next year will be made to LAA and you will receive all of the details regarding the changes, through the post, in November. This will include a new bank form which you must return straight away in order that we can set up the transfer.
