Welcome to East Finchley Allotments Online!

East Finchley Allotments is a large, quiet Allotment site in North London. It is leased from the London Borough of Barnet and managed by the East Finchley Allotment Holders Association. You can click to read more about
our site and our history.

Our allotment holders come from a wide spread of backgrounds, jobs and countries of origin and range from young families to senior citizens. Their gardening experience varies too – from complete beginners to real experts.

Allotments offer wide benefits to those who cultivate them and for the wider community.They offer fresh air and exercise, fresh local food you can trust, an outdoor space to relax and a ready-made community of friends. These benefits were set out more fully in a recent report by the
Greater London Assembly.
