Whitley Growallot

Whitley Growallot Community Garden based in South Reading welcoming anyone interested in getting involved. We will provide raised beds adapted for those with mobility issues.

Food4Families secured the lease from Reading Borough Council to transform a piece of abandoned land in the centre of Whitley into a community allotment managed by local residents growing their own fruit and vegetables in 2013. People new to growing are supported in learning to plan, sow, grow and harvest using natural growing principles. More experienced growers can have their own raised bed if t

hey would like.Produce grown is shared out amongst participants and used in cookery lessons. All waste will be collected and fed back into the project via a community composting scheme.
