    Hi

    How do you make extra revenue in your allotment shop other than from what you make in sales?

    Many thanks

    Our shop is non profit making, there is no point in charging more for stuff that be got elsewhere cheaper

      Not speaking from experience here but you could combine the shop with a basic caffeteria and outdoor sitting area?

      A hut with a table and chairs and a tea urn would be a start!

      Tool hire is another way?

      Open it to the general public?

          Hi NOG

          How do you go about setting up a bar? Our chairman has mentioned he wants a bar after visiting some Allotments in Birmingham.

          The basic caffeteria is a great idea but we have no power.

            You could get a generator, they are quite resonably priced now a days

                Hi Maureen

                Good idea.

                People with basic caffeteria set ups do you get plenty of custom?

                Thanks
