Tern Television wants your help

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Annie at Tern TV, makers of Beechgrove garden writes:

Allotment Survey
On the Beechgrove Garden programme we are trying to create a picture of what is going on in the allotment scene in Scotland.
Please tell us.
The name of your allotments or your association.
How many allotments are there?
How much does it cost to have one?
How many people are on your waiting list?
How long do they have to wait to get an allotment?
Have you had  waiting lists before or are they a new thing?
Who is applying for allotments: for example women, families, groups etc?
Who is using the allotments? Can you say roughly the percentage of men,  women, young people, families, retired people? Is this changing? 
What are people growing? Can you give us some examples of changes in what people grow?
If you can answer these questions for your allotment site please email your replies to Annie at <annie@terntv.com>
