What do we encourage?
The interest in growing vegetables and flowers has increased during the past years. Interest in the environment, knowledge of what you are eating combined with a desire to be creative are some of the reasons.
Each allotment holder receives the membership magazine Koloniträdgården (the Allotment Garden) four times a year, containing information of interest to allotment and leisure gardeners; news, consumer information, research, book reviews, reports and practical gardening information as well as useful news from local societies. The Magazine is Sweden’s second oldest magazine. 100 years in February 2018.
The increased interest in gardening has also created a need for more allotments all over the country. Therefore our organisation works to influence the authorities to include more allotments, with or without cottages, in the urban planning process.
