Welcome to Barrowby Gardeners' Association

Barrowby Gardeners' Association are a friendly allotment community and we welcome new plot holders, Associate Members, and local residents to our Saturday shop and social events that we run throughout the year. We also run a Best Kept Allotment competition, have BBQs and family events, and have an Annual Dinner for members. 

There are 51 plots at the Barrowby allotments on The Drift Barrowby. The site is owned by Barrowby Parish Council and run by the Barrowby Gardeners' Association.

Our members grow a wide variety of fruit and vegetable produce for their own use, and we sell excess produce in our allotment shop on a Saturday morning.  

The allotments are run by a dedicated committee of plot holders on behalf of Barrowby Parish Council.  Details of the committee are listed at the bottom of this page.

NEXT EVENT:  NEXT EVENT:  Saturday 17th May 2025 - Plant and Seed Swap. 10am-12pm on Barrowby Allotments.

We currently have a waiting list and priority is given to residents of Barrowby Parish.

We initially rent out half plots for an annual fee. Application forms are on the tab marked 'Apply' at the top of this page.

This includes plot rental, membership of the Barrowby Gardeners Association and of the National Allotment Society, public liability insurance and water. 

We welcome people who are new to vegetable gardening and offer advice, tips and spare plants.
