The Hareham Gardens “Best Allotment” prize this year was won by Susan and Rob MacShane for plot 9. Their other allotment, plot 10, took second place. Susan and Rob’s son, Will, and his wife Sue took third place on plot 5, making it a happy family of winners.
Highly commended was plot 36A, gardened by Jane Wheat. All the winners get one year rent free for their allotment plots and a trophy donated in memory of Ken Marriott.
The Trustees of the James Peacock Bread Charity thank Marion Pell for organising the judging. It’s great that Will, Sue and Jane have managed to produce such good plots after only one season at the Gardens.
