Welcome to Whetstone Stray Allotments, Barnet: a lovely West-facing site with a tranquil rural atmosphere, alongside Dollis Brook.
We are a thriving community of keen gardeners of all ages, abilities and styles.
Like all allotment sites in Barnet, we are self managing and administering. Our membership is active in maintaining and improving our site as a whole. Recent communal activities include native hedge and wild flower planting.
Have a look around our website. If you are interested in joining our community, get in touch by email or visit our Trading Hut which is open on Sundays from April – October 10:30-11.30am. We are also have an award-winning Community Plot with disabled access for local groups – please get in touch if you would like to use this or to volunteer on it.
This year, Whetstone Stray Community Plot is proud to be a training partner with Capital Growth, the network for London food growers.
We look forward to welcoming you to these two exciting training events at Whetstone Stray.
