Women Connect First Allotment Project
![Community Garden: Often planted on public or formerly abandoned land, community gardens are run by volunteers who cultivate vegetables or flowers and closer relationships to nature and one another. Generally open to all participants, they are sometimes fenced, locked or threatened by development. May offer hands-on learning and a habitat for birds and insects.

Overview
As part of the Empower Women project undertaken by Women Connect First, an allotment has been developed on land given to the project by Cardiff Council, in partnership with BTCV Cymru.
The project engages BME women in the community through growing their own fruit and vegetables, increasing environmental awareness, and providing increased opportunities to get involved in outdoor activities.
The aim of the group is to develop the allotment site and provide an environmental education resource by introducing OCN accreditation for learning new skills and developing further volunteering opportunities.
