Pimp Hall Allotment Association

About Us The allotments are worked by an interesting community of gardeners whose ages range from four years old up to ninety odd, and who come from a diverse range of backgrounds and cultures. This brings an approach to horticulture, which draws not only on the knowledge, skill and experience of gardeners who have worked plots on Pimp Hall for decades, but also people with fresh ideas, including those who learned their craft in parts of the world a long way away from North Chingford, bringing and sharing horticultural skills from such places as Ukraine, Russia, Cyprus, China, Nigeria and the Caribbean. Some people enjoy their allotment as a place of peace and quiet where they can get away from everyday pressures and spend some time in their own company with their own thoughts. Others like the company of fellow gardeners and forge lasting friendships. For those who wish it, there is an active social community which meets informally to enjoy each other’s company, whether for a chat and a laugh over a cup of tea and biscuits on a Sunday morning; or to share a meal together at a barbecue on a summers evening.
