GARDENERS are being asked to help make an environmentally-friendly allotment venture a success.
Blackhall Rocks Community Allotment needs volunteers to take on plots before next month.
The aim of the project is to help people grow their own food, free from pesticides and chemicals, while reaping the benefit of exercise.
The allotment is a partnership between Easington Primary Care Trust's Eat Well, Grow Well, and Groundwork East Durham's Heal Project.
The Northern Echo's gardening correspondent, Brigid Press, who is involved in the Eat Well, Grow Well scheme, said: "Everyone will be provided with tools, seeds, training support and advice."
To take part, call (01429) 837045.
