Do you enjoy being active in the outdoors?

Have you ever thought of growing your own vegetables but are unsure where to start?

Perhaps you fancy having a go but have little or no garden?

Have you thought about having an allotment but think it is too great a commitment or you have looked at the council waiting list and despaired?

If the answer to any of these questions is "YES", then this may be the Group for you!


We have a beautiful communal allotment overlooking Duddingston Loch. The group meets regularly on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons during the summer, (occasionally during the winter) and we also hold a couple of social events each year.


We welcome members who are reasonably fit, active and willing to commit to attending at least a couple of times per month during the main growing season. In return we offer free vegetables and a chance to meet new friends and learn from each other.

Buses: 12.
