Brookfield Allotments is a cherished community green space where local residents come together to grow their own fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Established to promote sustainable living and provide an opportunity for people to enjoy gardening regardless of their home size, the allotments offer individual plots that members can cultivate throughout the year. The site is often buzzing with activity, from the quiet tending of plants to friendly chats among neighbours, creating a strong sense of community and shared purpose. Beyond gardening, Brookfield Allotments plays an important role in supporting biodiversity and environmental awareness. Many plot holders use organic methods, encourage pollinators, and share surplus produce through local food initiatives. Seasonal events, such as seed swaps, open days, help connect the wider community and inspire others to get involved in growing their own food. The allotments stand as a local example of how green spaces can nurture both people and nature.

Plots

Plots are either full plots or half plots governed by a set of rules and regulations set by the Committee. Plot holders are expected to adhere to these rules and regs and to report any concerns or problems that may arise to the Committee. Plot inspections take place three times a year and the site maintenance team (SMT) help maintain the overall site keeping it in good condition for your enjoyment and safety. There is a Risk Assessment that the Committee ask you to read for your safety while on site. Click here to read. To view a site plan click here.
