Dig It Community Allotment
Dig It Community Allotment offers a calm, inclusive and social setting to encourage activity, a healthy lifestyle and peer support. The design of the site is entirely volunteer led and we grow a variety of vegetables, fruit, flowers and herbs. Our volunteers learn how to propagate seeds, nurture what is planted, harvest what is grown and maintain the site. Dig It are continuously developing accessibility at the allotment to provide wheelchair access throughout the site.
Regular days are based at Crocus Fields Allotments, Saffron Walden. Activities are coordinated by a member of staff and we frequently arrange local community projects and partnerships. We also host occasional courses and workshops by visiting tutors.
