Can I ask how you got the award, did you have to notify the council etc.

I thought of trying to get a local award for Sutton Allotments??

Thanks, Mick

The competition is on every year. We are advised about it in the allotment news letter that is sent to the site secretary. You then have to request the forms to submit the entries. I think the BDAS is responsible for the Birmingham event and the prizes and certificates are awarded at the Kings Heath show at the end of August. Try contacting your local council. I take it that you are in Sutton, (surrey) and not the Sutton in Birmingham otherwise you would have been informed of the event

The is no such thing as bad weather - just bad clothing choices.

You should have gotten them to move the BBQ tent down to your plot Lou.

I fixed the weather for the BBQ. The rain stopped as soon as we got there. Tone and I only stayed a short while to fry the onions for them and then had to get back to me mom. It was nice to see everyone enjoying themselves.
