A member has asked:-

Hello all,

Does anyone know of any local farmers or stables offering free manure that can be collected in bags?

We don’t have vehicle access to our plot.

Thanks in advance.

We're looking forward to this year's Hagbourne Village Produce Show. We had a great time there last year! It's open to Didcot residents so make sure it's in your diaries and come along for a fantastic day.

It's that time of year again! Save the date in your diaries for the Hagbourne Produce & Craft show - Sunday 6th September 🥕🫛🍅 What have you all been growing and making so far this summer?

Didcot Allotment Society is run entirely by volunteers and like many organisations we would welcome new committee members, their ideas and skills.

Specifically, we would like to increase representation from New Road and Mereland Road, although not a prerequisite.

Typically, committee members meet for four, two-hour meetings a year, held on mutually agreed weekday evenings. Volunteers take away tasks to complete within agreed time frames and ideally they will be able to attend the AGM & plant sale held on a Saturday morning in May and then the second plant sale of the season, usually a Saturday morning in June.

If you would like to find out more about volunteering with us please email; [email protected]

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported our 2026 AGM and our first plant sale of the year.

An extra special "thank you" to those who grew and donated plants to the sale.

We would love to see photos of your successful crops later in the year.

It is great to have gained some new followers recently, welcome! 👋

This is a reminder of our AGM this Saturday at Didcot Civic Hall. Our popular plant sale will open immediately after the formalities.

We will be greatfully accepting donations of plants to add to our sales tables. If you do have anything to donate please bring them to the Civic Hall from 09:45.
