🐹 Free Guinea Pig Manure: Boost Your Soil & Save Water!

6th Aug 2026 by Carol Brier-Secretary

Looking for a natural way to enrich your soil and keep your beds moist during dry spells? We have access to free guinea pig manure for allotment plot holders.

Often called “black gold” by vegetable growers, guinea pig droppings are a fantastic, organic soil conditioner:

Superior Moisture Retention: Packed with fibrous plant material, it acts like a sponge in your soil helping hold moisture where your crops need it most.

Nutrient Rich: Gentle, slow-release source of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium.

Safe for Beds: Unlike raw horse or poultry manure, it is a “cold” manure, meaning it won’t burn plant roots when applied or turned into your topsoil.

Want to Try It or See How It Works?
Fellow plot holder Steve York has been using it on his plot with great results and is happy to share his experience, show you how he applies it, and help you get started.

How to Get in Touch
You are welcome to help yourself to the Guinea pig manure from the bay at the bottom of the car park near Steve Yorke Plot, 67, or arrange a quick chat/demo on site, contact Steve directly:
