I'm not on the committee any more so I can't give out contact details. Best thing to do is go to the site office,between 10am and 12 noon any Sunday. Don't forget,you just rent the allotment,you don't buy it,but you might have to buy a pigeon loft or greenhouse from the previous tenant.

I remember the Stefanskis,I lived near them in York Road,Darnall in the 1960's. They had 4 children,Vanda (that was a nickname,don't remember her real name) ,Barbara,Diane and Richard. Sorry I can't remember where they went when they left.

Call in at the site office Sunday 10am-12 noon,I think there will be lofts available.

Infield Lane Darnall,top of High Hazels Park. £60 p.a.,cheaper than the council,water on all year. The office on the site is open Sunday mornings 10am-12noon.

For potatoes and onions,spread it now and dig in next month when the weeds have stopped germinating. For sprouts,best to grow them on ground that was manured this year,and lime in spring. For strawberries,try scattering pelleted chicken manure between the plants in early spring.

You are confusing two different sites. The ones between B&Q and Quickfit are Infield Lane allotments at Darnall,where I am. The ones at Handsworth are in the Bramley Park Road area,near Handsworth church.

Try New Leaf at Coal Aston. They delivered for us at Friends of High Hazels Park,but we did spend £600 with them,so there might be a minimum order for them to offer delivery.
