Maren Talbot
Treasurer - Hanging Hill - Plot 27
Maren gardens at Hanging Hill. She got her first bramble clad allotment in 2002, installed a greenhouse for her private orchid collection and transformed the plot into a productive garden. Occupancy was very low at the time, so she took on more plots grow fruit, vegetables and flowers for the bees. She's taking care of all financial aspects of the association - MAA subscriptions, purchases or donations - while also running the highly beneficial seed scheme for members - ask for a catalogue if you’re interested or email her if you wish to use the online order facility.

Denise’s approach is to try to create a plot which is both productive and attractive to work in with a great variety of vegetables and fruit. Her priority is to see the allotments at full capacity and as many people as possible able to grow their own fruit and vegetables.

Shaun Kennedy
Member - Hangung Hill - Plot 69a
Shaun has had an allotment plot at Hanging Hill since 2020, and openly admits that it was not until he joined the Committee that he realised just how much 'behind the scenes' work is needed to make the sure the Allotments run smoothly!!!!
Inspired by the Awesome Bill Masser, black currants are his number one crop, but is still learning to prune properly.
This years challenge for him is to grow 'vertical' cucumbers: less space and hopefully fewer slugs.
Shaun has lived in central Marlow for over 30 years with only a small garden, so the walk to Hanging Hill Site brings a good work out and great views.

Harry took on the plot in 2024 and was quickly keen to join the Committe and help to support the Allotment Sites in any way that he can.
