Congratulations! to plotholder John O'Shea (Plot 110) for the Best Kept Allotment on the Cottenham Park Allotments site, awarded by Merton Council. A well-deserved award!
This weekend about ten sheds on the Site were broken into and a lawn mower was reported as taken from one of the sheds.
All the plotholders affected have been notified, as far as we know, and the police were informed.
Please can other plotholders with sheds check your sheds as soon as you can. Although it might not be as convenient if tools and any items of value are not stored in your shed, it is worth thinking carefully about the possible risks of storing such items in your shed.
As the CPAGA year for 2015 draws to a close, some dates for the diary for plotholders and garden members:
6 December: The Shop closes for the year, at 11:30 am. That is followed by the CPAGA Christmas Party - all welcome.
6 December is also the deadline for placing seed orders for 2016.
7 February: The Shop re-opens on the first Sunday of February in the new year.
