Northfields Allotments

Summer Open Day: On Sunday 5 July we'll be opening our gates again for everyone in the local community to enjoy #LondonOldestAllotments. The site dates back to 1832 and you'll be able to see some of the history of the site during your visit! #Allotmentlife #Northfields

Not your average Bank Holiday at the allotment! Two abandoned Indian Runner ducklings were found. Thanks to some brilliant community teamwork, they were safely fed, sheltered, and handed over to the London Wildlife Group. #TeamDucklings #AllotmentLife #Northfields #Ealing

Spring has definitely sprung in Northfields! Our annual recording of frog spawn saw the first females lay spawn on 24 Feb..which is the same as 2023 but a week or so later than 2024. #allotmentlife #northfields #allotment #frogspawn

Although some of us are retired gardeners, we are not ready to hang up our boots just yet! We can't wait to welcome the 3,000 people who managed to secure tickets earlier this month. We have lots of excitement in store! #allotmentlife #halloween

On a wet Sunday like today, the perfect comfort food is picking Rhubarb from this early season variety and making into a crumble for dessert! Let's hope these plotholders are doing just that ;) #allotmentlife #Ealing #northfields #allotments
