Number of allotments and community gardens in Ireland

Open

A database should be publicly available showing how many of the following are currently provided by each local authority and municipal district in Ireland:

  • Number of allotments per local authority and municipal district
  • Number of community gardens per local authority and municipal district

All data is currently available as per the LGMA report in January 2020 (PDF linked), but not yet published as a dataset: https://www.lgma.ie/en/publications/local-authority-sector-reports/a-profile-of-local-government-climate-actions-in-ireland.pdf

Potential Use

Communities would be able to use this information to request additional community growing spaces. Local authorities would be able to use this information to benchmark against other local authorities. Currently there are no other available records as detailed here: https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/debates/question/2021-03-31/468/?highlight%5B0%5D=allotments
