Southall TransitionPlease note that this community mission has been cancelled.
The Bixley Field Allotments in Southall provide space for the community to grow food locally, and enjoy a little bit of wilderness and the sights of the nearby Grand Union Canal. Southall Transition manages a couple of plots there and needs help with preparing for the winter.
You will meet a friendly group of lovely regular volunteers, enjoy a chat with them and share the harvest (in the summer) or refreshments (usually in the winter).
Mani and Matwinder have big dreams and plans for the community plots. With the help of volunteers, they become possible. Last year, thanks to the regular volunteers and GoodGymers, we literally enjoyed the fruits of our hard work: Mani always shared the harvest with all the volunteers at the Sunday sessions.

We will use the entrance from the canal. If you can see the "Bixley Fields" and "Bixley Triangle" signs (see the photos), you are in the right place.
