Allotment Associations & Horticultural Groups in Harrow, Middlesex


FREE Wood Chip available on 24th April 2012
First come - first served!

Harrow In LEAF have been approached by a Bristol based tree surgeon to inform any interested parties that as he is working in Harrow towards the end of April, he will have a load of wood chip that an allotment can have delivered for FREE!

As he is an allotment holder himself he would prefer to donate it to an allotment "for paths, weed control and for composting. I'll be heading back to Bristol on the afternoon of the 24th April so the window of opportunity for this is quite small".

If you are interested then please contact Richard Price directly on 07974 771409

24th Dec. 2011 - and it's only the morning of Xmas Eve!
Xmas Eve morning 2011 - West End Lane and Meadow Road
Unexpected sight whilst going to collect some Brussels Sprouts to accompany my Christmas Dinner.

The onlookers taking photos could not believe how someone could have parked their car in such a position between approximately 10.00am and 11.00am on Xmas Eve!

"It was not there an hour ago" exclaimed one passer-by. There was no sign of the driver, who obviously did not wish to be found.


As the police had not arrived yet we must of only just missed the driver running away!

It reminds us to enjoy our Xmas and New Year festivities but DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE or it will not just be seeds planted underground in 2012.
