Title

City Road Allotments

Description

Our allotment site has been in existence since the 1940s when the need arose to grow your own for the war effort.

Originally farmland, the allotments have evolved over the years to the present day where we now have 71 plots of assorted sizes in use. The Association manages the site, which is leased from Dundee City Council; our purpose is to promote the growing of fruit and vegetables, to manage the site to promote a community spirit among members and to protect and enhance the environment.

Our site is constantly evolving, incorporating a calming, wildlife area, a welcoming display of flowers and a new project that we have just started working on. Come on in and see these areas as well as our wonderful plots!
