Decreased 'food miles', healthier, fresher produce, supporting local growers, and developing a market for your own produce are all good reasons for joining the SLHDA. On our website you can find out how to join, get information on the projects we are involved in, contact us with your thoughts and ideas.
For members, we have a lively discussion forum where you can ask advice, swap stories and trade produce - that's in addition to all the other benefits of membership.
Welcome to the Polytunnel!
