Roof Allotments Opened In Brentford

Ruth Cadbury attends Cultivate London event

Thirty-five new rooftop allotments have been launched at Brentford Lock West. They were officially opened on Saturday 28th May during a party attended by local MP Ruth Cadbury, which included an interactive workshop by innovative urban farm Cultivate London.

Situated on the roof top of Carrick Square, a collection of apartments and townhouses set around a landscaped communal garden, the allotments will be managed by the Cultivate team, who have been growing a range of fresh produce on site at Brentford Lock West since building work first began.

They will run a demonstration allotment throughout the year along with monthly workshops to inspire residents to make the most of their space and be on hand to offer advice and guidance when needed.
