Urban Green Newcastle
Breathing life into our parks and allotments
Allotment Plot Competition
We’re lucky at Urban Green Newcastle to manage over 60 allotment sites across the city, totalling over 3,000 individual plots, and to work with the city’s dynamic and dedicated allotment holder community. In celebration of their hard work throughout the year we are delighted to now be able to announce the winners of the 2022 plot competition.
Beelines North East
To protect our precious pollinators, we’re working in partnership with Northumberland Wildlife Trust to create a network of 45 nectar-rich public sites, aiming to plant 2,500 trees, 25,000 bulbs and creating 18 hectares of grassland.
