Assistance

The federation is continuing to pursuing a number of avenues in their efforts to promote gardening in general and allotments in particular. We are looking for anyone who has a special aptitude to growing, or a skill in a particular subject, who is willing to pass this on to small groups of people. If you consider that you can spare some of your time in helping out please get in touch with the editor.

Web-site

The Federation has a Web-site www.hahf.org.uk
It contains all sorts of details of interest:  news, events and photographs, as well as back copies of these newsletters (since we started having them as suitable documents). There are many links to useful web sites about allotments and vegetables which can give far more tips or diagnosis of problems than we could ever hope to cover locally in this publication.
If you have any useful links, ideas, contributions, photographs questions, things wanted or for sale, then do contact info@hahf.org.uk

Copy dates for Newsletters are: - 1st Feb; 1st. July and 1st. Nov. each year.

All comments, contributions, articles, enquires about advertising etc, should be sent to The Editor, David England, 62 Flamborough Rd, Ruislip Manor, HA4 0DH Tel: 01895 631883 or david@englanddavid.wanadoo.co.uk
