| = Trading Hut = The Trading Hut has become the focal point for many activities on site over recent years. There are always a bunch of plot holders and members there on a Sunday morning buying fertilisers etc., or simply socialising. The range of products on sale is improving all the time and good horticultural advice is in abundance. A free seed swap scheme was introduced in 2001 for plot holders and non-plot-holding members alike. The Trading Hut is very often the first point of contact for new members and our Trading Secretary ensures the prices are always competitive. All this combined with our delivery service for bulky items will ensure the success of our Trading Hut for many, many years to come. For a detailed description of some commonly used fertilisers and how to use them see the WhatsItFor pages. |
