Early in 2009, due to growing requests to secure allotments for Limerick we began a campaign called Limerick Allotments. We now have a mailing group of over one hundred. Feedback from a public meeting held in Castletroy indicated the following requirements:
- A demand for both Local Authority and private sites
- A travelling time of no greater than 15 minutes
- Greatest demand in the suburbs and surprisingly from people who own the average size suburban garden
- A variety of site sizes, down to a 4 by 4 metres
- Sites to be equipped with water provision and storage sheds for tools
- On site expert advice
- Security on site
