Judging for the 2014 Allotment Competition started on 14 July, and the criteria included
- Sites: good overall condition of plots, communal areas, paths, notice boards, health and
safety, communal equipment (where relevant), conservation and site development (please
note, these are not all given equal weighting).
- Plots: good crop quality and variety, succession, weed & pest control, composting and
conservation, use of space and innovation (please note, these are not all given equal
weighting). Half plots and full plots were judged together. Quarter plot entries formed a separate category with adapted criteria. Entries were also welcome
from school or group plots.
