Description
Allotment gardeners  in Cambridge ran  a fortnightly stall at the Cambridge Farmers Market in Market Squares from August 1999 to August 2000. Our stall now continues on the last Sunday of each month.Cambridge Farmers Market takes place Sundays from 10am-4pm, selling plants, herbs, bread, organic fruit and vegetables.

Takings from sale of surplus produce are used for allotment promotion such as advertising and improvements  The stall also acts as an information point about allotment gardening.Several visitors to the stall came from abroad. One of our helpers spoke fluent Spanish, which came in handy when a couple from Spain, who are now resident in Cambridge, discovered that allotments were currently available to rent. They now intend to look for a suitable plot.
