Description
Aims:
An innovative location for an allotment, this was planted by members of Transition Kensal to Kilburn. The planting brought a community of keen gardeners together, and maintaining the allotment similarly encourages group participation. Signs installed around the 2 beds inform passengers of the projects objectives, and encourages them to help themselves to sample the produce.
