BRIAR ROAD ALLOTMENT HOLDER’S ASSOCIATION
Dear Plot Holders,
Wishing everyone a Happy Easter weekend – A few updates:
SITE SHOP: We’re aiming to open the shop on Sunday mornings for the next few weeks from 10.30am – 12.30pm (We’d prefer card payments where possible) We’ll continue to open as long as we can get enough volunteers to cover the hours - Thanks to those of you that have already volunteered - if anyone else would like to sign up, please sign up here VolunteerSignup - Online volunteer signup sheets - BRAHA Trading Shed Rota signup sheet
WOODY WASTE / DEAD HEDGE: Some of you may have noticed that we’ve started to build a dead hedge around the seating area in front of the Community Hut. Unfortunately, we’re in a long queue for the council contractor to come with a shredder, so we thought creating a dead hedge to provide a great habitat for our local wildlife might be a better use of our woody waste while we’re waiting! Dead hedges provide a fabulous habitat for all sorts of creatures – we know we have hedgehogs on site, so hopefully we can provide a refuge for them too. You can find more information about dead hedges here - https://www.rspb.org.uk/helping-nature/what-you-can-do/activities/build-a-dead-hedge-for-wildlife. You might even like to create one on your own plot if you have space. If you have any woody waste (no painted wood please) feel free to add it to the hedge, but please be considerate and don’t just a leave a pile for volunteers to clear up…... If you’d like help, perhaps come along on a Sunday morning when a member of the committee should be around to help.
SUNDAY 17TH MAY – PLANT SALE 10.30am – 1pm: A quick reminder of our upcoming plant sale. Hopefully everyone has put in a few extra seeds! This is a great way to get plants for your plot – refreshments will be available and the trading hut will be open. We hope to see you there.
Thanks, as always for your continued support.
Kind Regards
BRAHA Committee
