UK: National Allotments Week 2020 10 August till 16 August.

Enter our National Allotments Week Competition!

Our theme for 2020 is Growing Food for Health and Well-being, a reflection of the many benefits of growing, cooking and eating your own fruit and vegetables.

Our annual campaign week due to take place from 10 to 16 August 2020 has been disrupted by the present Coronavirus Emergency. It is very possible that even in August we will still be being asked to socially distance to some extent and it would be irresponsible of us at the moment to ask associations to plan Open Days and events that encourage people to congregate. So we would like to ask plot-holders to enter our NAW Competition to produce videos and storyboards about their allotment story..

My Allotment Story – NAW Competition
“What my allotment means to me” for individuals (16 years upwards)- £100 prize – NAS members, non-members free NAS membership plus £50
“The history of our site” or “Our site’s projects and plans for the future” for associations – £200 prize – NAS members, non-members free association membership up to the value of £200
“ What I grow at the allotment” for children (up to 16 years)- £50 prize

Winners will be announced on 10 August.
