It's been some time coming, but our greenhouse is finally nearing completion. Made completely from reclaimed materials, it's the brainchild of site designer Helen and group organiser Josh.
When finished, the greenhouse will be home to seedlings throughout the germination period and plants (such as tomatos and peppers) that need to be cultivated in a warmer, moister environment.
The Chorlton Allotment Project is a community-run 'grow-your-own' scheme, which encourages members of the local community to produce their own organic fruit and veg.
Based just off Nell Lane (near Southern Cemetary, Chorlton), we meet every Sunday from one in the afternoon onwards. Attendance is free, and all visitors to the plot get to take home produce for their own kitchen table.
We have five or so regular attendees who tend to the plot, but we're eager to get more people involved.
