Part of our Scale Up Tranche, Roots Allotments provides a much desired and under supplied service to local communities across the United Kingdom: an allotment site for growing fruit and vegetables, and all the support needed for success.

Founded by four friends from Bath who were inspired by a 25-year waiting list for a local allotment, Roots has grown to six sites in its first two years, and has demand and desire for many more 📈

They don't just stop at a patch of land though. When you sign up with Roots you receive a welcome pack which includes your first seeds, a welcome session, and access to their online members community where you will receive all the advice that you need.

By championing the no dig technique, Roots focuses on natural growth, both for the health of your body and the health of your land. This also decreases the amount of work needed to prepare the soil, giving you more time to relax in the sun and enjoy watching your fresh veges grow 🥦

On top of this, Roots keeps local bees onsite and maintains a wildflower perimeter, all with the goal of healthy people and healthy planet.

In an environment of rising grocery bills, a focus on personal health, and a lack of residential space, personal allotments are needed more than ever, and we are excited to see what Roots Allotments can achieve!
