Wildlife at Millfield Allotments:
Millfield Allotments comprises approximately 4.5 acres of prime green space, and is surrounded by diverse hedgerows and mature trees, making it a haven for wildlife.
The allotment site is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including birds, bees, mammals, amphibians, and insects. There are a number of different habitats, including hedges, ponds, insect banks, wildflower banks, and log and stone piles. It is a great place to observe nature and learn more about the local environment.
We also have a dedicated plot for the production of honey, with a number of beehives located onsite. The plot is managed by a tenant, and the honey is sold locally by the Association with profits returning to the upkeep of the site. More information on our honey can be found on our Honey page.
