🌸 Celebrating 50 Years at the Hut – 12 April 2026

Join us for a special day to mark the 50th Anniversary of our gardening association!

In 2026 we proudly celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Windmill Hill Garden and Allotment Association (WHGAA) â€” a voluntary, non‑profit organisation founded on 12 April 1976 by allotment holders in West Bletchley. What began as a small group created for mutual support has grown into a welcoming community open to all who enjoy gardening.

Whether you’re tending an allotment or nurturing a garden at home, you’ll find friendly faces, practical advice, and great value at The Hut, our members’ trading store.

📍 Location: The Hut, Rosemullion Avenue,  Tattenhoe, Milton Keynes, MK4 3AH

đź•™ Time: Refreshments available from 10:00 to 14:00

We’re honoured to welcome the Mayor of Milton Keynes, who will be attending to recognise this milestone. We’re also delighted to host a representative from Willen Hospice, who will give a short talk and accept a cheque for the funds raised so far. Both are expected to visit between 12:00 and 13:00 on 12 April. 

We’ll be supporting Willen Hospice throughout the year — please consider donating any spare change to help their incredible work.

🌿 Fundraising Fun in the Run-Up
