Take part in a Community Harvest!
We’re so happy to partner with Cottonmill and Nunnery Allotment Association and St Albans Community Pantry on this Community Harvest project. We’ve provided a trolley to share surplus produce with our community. It’s got pride of place at the new Cottonmill Community and Cycling Centre.
Drop off washed and labelled fruit and veg to the trolley. If you drop between Monday and Thursday, you’ll be especially helping the key foodbanks on those days. Let us know if you make something nice with anything you’ve taken from the trolley as well!
