Recipes

Welcome to our recipe pages. They are not a comprehensive list- BBC Good Food among other sites is perfect for that! Rather, the pages are designed to provide a little inspiration for those times when allotment growers have a bit of a glut of particular produce! (Courgettes, I’m looking at you!!!)

If you’ve got a recipe that fits this bill, feel free to share it via our contact page here.
