Just 5 good reasons to rent an
allotment
with the Westcliff Land Cultivation Society here at Springfield Drive,
Westcliff on Sea, Essex;
GOOD
FOOD: A chance to grow your own healthy,
locally produced fruit and vegetables (and it’s cheaper than the shops!)
GOOD
COMMUNITY: Meet other people in a
friendly, sociable atmosphere
GOOD HEALTH: Plenty of gentle exercise and fresh air
GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT: Allotments
help to promote biodiversity and encourage habitat for urban wildlife
such as birds, hedgehogs, amphibians and reptiles
GOOD FUN: Best of all,
having an allotment is about enjoying yourself!

Notices from the Committee
Trading Shed - Seeds and gardening requisites available at (still) good
prices; volunteers needed to assist at weekends in the shop.
Mowers available to hire from the Trading Shed @ £2 a go.
Security fence - cover needs maintaining well in order to deter
people from climbing over – so please do not cut back the shrubs that
have been planted by the fence.
Lock the gates always - frequent offenders (non-lockers) will forfeit
membership - note that there has been a recent shed fire and the big
outdoor table was stolen last year.
