Shop reopening – Sunday 26th Feb!
Fresh seed stocks arrive this month, so the EWAA Shop will be open on Sunday 26th February, from 10am to mid-day. We will be selling a good range of seed potatoes, and vegetable, herb, green manure, and flower seeds, all at very reasonable prices. More details will appear on the Shop page once stocks arrive.
You can also borrow gardening books from the Shop, and visit to discuss idea and challenges with your fellow plot-holders.
Thank you for supporting the EWAA!
Two sheds burnt to the ground on Thursday night
Two sheds, on plot 130 and 134b, were burnt to the ground in the early hours of Thursday night. In addition, many sheds were broken into, but nothing has been reported as missing. The fire service attended the blaze, cutting the gate padlock to access the site. This has now been replaced.

TOILET BLOCK CLOSED
When the weather turned mild after the prolonged freeze a major leak developed in the toilet block at the allotments, so the water has been turned off and the door is now locked. The problem won’t be repaired until the New Year, so there is no access to the toilets until further notice.
EWAA Committee
Last chance to shop in 2022 – Sunday 4th Dec, 10-12
If you need anything from the allotment Shop hurry along tomorrow, because it won’t be open again this month, or in January next year.
The team of volunteers will open up the Shop again towards the end of February, when the stock of seed potatoes arrives.
Water Off
Today the water supply to the tanks around the allotment site was turned off for the Winter.
In early Spring next year it will be turned back on.
REMINDER: you need permission to put up a new structure
Any allotment-holders who are hoping to erect a new structure on their plot must first write to the Membership Secretary, using the address membership@ewaa.org.uk, to request permission, and to book a time to discuss the project.
