National Allotments Week

Started in 2002, National Allotments Week is an annual initiative that aims to raise awareness of allotments and their role in helping people live healthier lifestyles, grow their food, develop friendships, and bolster communities.

Our annual awareness week will run from 10-16 August 2026, and we have chosen the theme “Grow to Learn.”

It's a great chance to explore how allotments are vital spaces for growth in every sense: from the practical skills of growing fruit and vegetables, to mental and physical wellbeing, life lessons such as patience and resilience, and the social connections that come from growing alongside others.
