The Old Palace Allotments Open Day

The Old Palace Allotments in Richmond, Surrey, are holding an open day on Sunday 11 August to celebrate the end of National Allotment Week and to help raise money for the National Gardens Scheme's cancer and caring charities.

Tea, cakes and other refreshments will be available and visitors will have the chance to pick up some summer time additions to their gardens from the plant stall, as well as some freshly dug veg to enjoy during the week.

The allotments can be found right next to the White Swan Pub.
