Our beautiful plot at Lettsom Allotments is just a 10-minute walk from our Tuesday centre, within a community garden. Volunteers and client volunteers in the Tuesday gardening team look after it every week. We grow vegetables, fruit and flowers all year round, for the SDCAS kitchen and for anyone who visits the garden.
Our allotment is also open once a month to all interested clients. Accompanied by a staff member, we leave the Tuesday centre to walk to Lettsom Gardens after lunch at 1:50pm and have tea and biscuits and tend our plot until around 4:00pm. Please be aware there’s no toilet at the garden.
We will be running client trips to the allotment on the following upcoming dates:
- Tuesday 26th May
- Tuesday 30th June
Our Wednesday Garden is onsite at Trinity College Centre, meaning we are able to open it to clients every week between 11:30 and 3:30. It is maintained by our Wednesday garden team, consisting of volunteers and client volunteers. We are lucky to have a donated greenhouse, and grow flowers, and lots of different veg which is used to make lunches for clients, volunteers and staff.
