Are you on the allotment waiting lists? Ever seen an unused garden and wished you could grow your own food there? Need some help on your allotment plot, or do you have a garden on which you'd love to see food grown? Grow Your Neighbour's Own is about matching these people together.

The scheme aims to help form lasting (gardening!) relationships between people, preferably people who live near each other – the garden owner and volunteer gardener arrange between them what they will grow and how often the gardening will take place, and share the produce as it is harvested. Allotment holders who'd like a bit of help with their plot can also register to the scheme to find a co-worker.

How to get involved: You can find out more on the Grow Your Neighbour's Own website at http://www.growyourneighboursown.org.uk, or you can phone the Food Partnership on 01273 431 700 to register your details and ask any questions about the scheme.
