Roots, a business aimed at providing accessible allotments for people in Bristol, has had its plans for a site in Abbots Leigh rejected by local councillors. The project sought to create a hilltop allotment site where residents could grow their own produce. However, residents near the proposed site raised concerns about the impact on wildlife and the environment. The meeting concluded with the rejection of the plan, leaving allotment enthusiasts disappointed. The demand for allotments in the UK is high, with waiting lists stretching to more than 10 years in some areas. Roots aims to address this demand by creating “no-dig” allotments that prioritize sustainability and community engagement. Despite the setback in Abbots Leigh, the business plans to expand to other locations in the future.
