New Ash Green Allotments

Welcome to New Ash Green Allotments

​

New Ash Green Horticultural Association (NAGHA) is a non-profit community organisation which rents its 79 allotments to the community (approx. 160 people) and brings people together with a single purpose - to grow fruit, vegetables and flowers for their families.

NAGHA was started in 1975 as the village was being developed. Some plots have passed from one generation to the next to become part of their family history. Families, groups and individuals of all ages make up our allotment community and all learn from each other and support each other with knowledge and cooperation, creating a happy and friendly place to be.
 

For many it is their first foray into Growing things. For some its their only socialisation. For others it’s a place where children can learn how their food grows; many people have a patch of their allotment for their children or grandchildren to grow their own produce.

 

The allotments provide a place of escape that promotes mental wellbeing as well as keeping people physically active. The allotments are an integral part of our community and where people can come together and promote both healthy living and healthy eating. We have a strong focus on safety and security.There is also a 'share' table where excess plants and produce can be shared amongst other plot holders or donated to the Community Cupboard food bank.
