Allotment holders unload the compost
TWO tractor loads of organic compost were delivered to allotment holders in Whitchurch.
Jody Scheckter, owner of Laverstoke Park Farm near Overton, offered the compost as a gift to the town after judging an allotment competition earlier in the year.
Whitchurch Town Council-lor Mike Kean said: “It’s a good gesture from him. When he came to present the awards, I think he was quite impressed with the site and the soil.”
The allotment sites are in Bloswood Lane and Winchester Road.
