Olympic Allotments can harvest then “sod” off

Welcome Sheddie, this blog is about sheds, we love sheds. You can share your shed, or view other people's sheds. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed or by Email, or read our past posts, or maybe you would like to buy a shed?

I mentioned this before about allotments being closed to make way for the big Olympic movement

But this story is that they are being given access to their hard work to harvest their crops, big deal, these people have been on the sites for years and the big bullys come along, the whole point of the Olympics is for community I thought.. but they are getting a new shed, which does not make up for it at all.

“As part of our continued support, a limited amount of plot holders will be allowed supervised access to their current site for a few days a week until September. After the Games we will be reproviding a larger allotment site on a landscaped Olympic Park.”

The LDA has been working with the allotment holders for two years to identify and secure a site.

Other forms of LDA support include £850 disturbance compensation for each allotment holder, new shed and moving existing greenhouses to the new site.
