Auchmuty Allotments are owned and managed by Fife Council and is one of the smaller sites. As well as 8 individual plots there is a community plot managed by Community Learning and Development.
Over the years the community plot has provided a growing space for scouts, young carers and supported employment services.

The Community Plot
This year we are working with FIRST at the allotment, what a wet summer it has been so far, we were a bit late in planting this year and we were hoping for some sunshine to boost the plants. So far we had a fair crop of raspberries and raddishes. The pigeons enjoyed the cabbage we planted so they have been covered in fleece to encourage new growth.
New bark on the paths August 2017.
