The Mobile Allotment is now based at Oaklands School in Bethnal Green where it is being stripped down and renovated by Lisa. Pupils at the school have been involved in customising the Mobile Allotment and have started planting seeds in readiness for transplanting them to the allotment when its renovation is complete.
The young people will be creating a magical mobile garden that will appeal to all the senses; heady scents, vibrant colours and delicious tastes will be the order of the day. And, of course, this will all have other benefits too. As well as giving the participants new skills in gardening and a better understanding of the links between the garden they have created and the food they eat it will also attract butterflies and bees - thus supporting urban bio-diversity in the city.
