BRIAR ROAD ALLOTMENT HOLDER’S ASSOCIATION
Dear Plot Holders,
We hope that everyone is well and coping with all the wet weather. As the growing season comes to an end, we have a few updates.
WOODY WASTE COLLECTION: The council have confirmed that there will be another woody waste collection this Autumn. We’re just waiting to confirm a date, but in the meantime please hang onto any woody waste you might have until we can confirm the date.
COMPOST BINS: A quick reminder that there is compost / mulch available in Bin 1 of the communal compost bins.
Unfortunately, we don’t have a spare bin available at the moment to open for new material and Bin 4 is getting rather precarious. If you could hang on to any compostable material (or even better, make your own compost on your plots) until another bin is available, we’d be really grateful!
RHS HAMPTON COURT FLOWER SHOW 2025: The Borough of Richmond Allotment Group (BRAG) that represents council allotment sites across the borough are hoping to put forward an allotment garden at next year’s Hampton Court Flower Show in July. They’re looking for allotment holders who would like to get involved and are holding an initial meeting at the Council offices next Monday, 7th October. A poster is attached and if you’d like to get involved, please go along to find out more information.
CHRISTMAS SOCIAL / RAFFLE: Hold the date! Sunday 1st December: We’re planning to hold our Christmas social at the hut on Sunday 3rd December. There will be a raffle, mince pies and mulled wine!
We’d be grateful for any items suitable for the raffle – you can leave them in the hut with a note or let one of the committee have them in advance.
COMMITTEE MEMBERS: We’re always on the lookout for new committee members. If you think you’d like to get a bit more involved, please get in touch.
Thanks as always for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you at the Christmas Social
Kind Regards
BRAHA Committee
