Title: Looking for manure
Post by: Spudder on October 15, 2021, 10:08

Hi,
My plot is in Worcester and I’m looking for horse or farmyard manure.
Any ideas or suggestions welcomed.

My plot is on the Timberdine Allotment Site.

Hi Spudder, welcome to the forum!
It's worth speaking to a few of the old boys & girls on your site, they'll almost certainly know a source or two. I know there's a lady with horses in Worcester who happily delivers a trailer full for free and I'm sure someone on your site will have her contact details.

Thank you for your reply.
I’ve asked about the site but no one seems to.know a source.

If you have details of the lady you mentioned that would be very welcome.

My apologies, it wouldn't be appropriate to pass on someone's private contact number over the internet, I hope you understand! A quick online search for manure in Worcester does bring up a couple of results you could try.

Thank you.

I fully understand re the internet etc and agree.

I’ve checked via every online Avenue I can think of and met with no success. The nearest location is Stourport and that at a cost of £40 a trailer (approx 1 ton).

Other than that there are locations in Birmingham,Warwick again at a similar cost.

So if there is a way to communicate with you privately perhaps we could try that? Not sure if there is a way of direct PM via this forum or not?

Thanks

P1P could Spudder pm you his number & you pass that on to the lady who could then contact Spudder if she chooses?
