Now that the weather is urging us to be out on our plots, please take time to familiarise yourself with the rules and etiquette around fires. Try to compost as much organic material as possible, and consider those around you.
- No bonfires before 6pm or before dusk when the days are shorter and it gets dark before 6pm
- No bonfires on Sundays or public holidays
- Only burn plant material that is thoroughly DRY and free of soil
- Do NOT bring rubbish onto the site for burning
- Stay close to the fire at all times
- Never light a fire on a windy day
- Extinguish a fire immediately with water if another plot-holder reports having trouble breathing, or if a neighbour from the surrounding houses complains
