The Website
This website is for the members of the Horfield and District Allotment Association. I would like to make it as informative and enjoyable as possible for all. The site is new and I would like to add more sections with multiple pages which will give growing and harvesting tips.- Recipes for using our produce.- Preserving and storing food. - Subjects which might be of interest to our members (eg. bee-keeping), - and perhaps, a forum for members to share ideas.
* If you have ideas of other pages or sections you would like to have added please let me know on :
horfieldallotments@gmail.com
* If you have recipes for dishes using our produce please let me know.
* If you have favourite methods for storing and preserving produce, please let me know.

Hints of Spring!
The Association leases the sites from Bristol City Council and they are managed by a Committee which includes the representatives from each field. We have been working and investing over the last few years to improve security, particularly around the Golden Hill site.
This is of course, a continuing process.
We do appreciate any information which helps us to maintain the high standard we strive for.
If you want to rent a plot, contact Marjorie McCartney on email: horfieldallotments@gmail.com
The Horfield and District Allotment fields are in North Central Bristol in England.
There are three separate sites spread over 2 or 3 miles, consisting of 6 allotment fields. Four of the fields are adjacent on Golden Hill in Bishopston, bounded by Monk Road, Longmead Avenue and Kellaway Avenue.
The other 2 fields are Grahams Field in Horfield and Birchall in Redland.
