Ellerker Allotments 2016

There will be an abundance of apples and possibly some pears and plums ready for picking on the Ellerker allotments (at the top of Howden  Croft Hill) during the next few weeks. Everybody who lives in the village is welcome to share the fruit as it would be a shame if it was wasted and left to rot on the ground in the Autumn.

Please contact Diana, Clair or Florence, just to let them know that you will be visiting the allotments.
