Allotment Associations

Allotment associations are organizations that oversee and manage communal plots of land—known as allotments—primarily used for growing personal gardens. Members typically rent these small plots to cultivate fruits, vegetables, or flowers. The association sets rules for upkeep, safety, and shared facilities, ensuring the land remains productive and well-maintained. They often organize activities, maintain communal areas, and represent members' interests. Essentially, they create a structured community around gardening, providing affordable access to land for individuals who might not have space at home, fostering recreational, sustainable, and social benefits.
