Nobody stakes money on our plots. Habits can still take root, and here is how the committee handles them.
If gambling is causing you harm today, ring the National Gambling Helpline, which is free, on 0808 8020 133, which is staffed around the clock, or start an online chat with GamCare.
Social casino games share their look, sounds and pace with real gambling. That is why Giant Marrow Plots is meant only for grown-ups who have reached the legal gambling age, and nothing here is directed at under-18s. Age is confirmed at two points: on the banner shown on your first visit, and a tick box you must complete to open an account.
A free game can easily be tuned to feel generous, and Bryony refills your tin without charge. A game played with real money does neither of those things. However well you do on our plots, it reveals nothing about how you would get on with money at stake.

The plots at Giant Marrow Plots are for grown-ups of 18 or over. The plots run on make-believe coins of no monetary value, which nobody can buy, sell, withdraw or exchange. You will not find a coin stall or a till anywhere on the allotment, the show bench awards nothing with real-world value, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
