The food growing project was aimed at local women and managed by volunteers. In the urban garden in the backyard of the Trust’s building, local women created a miniature ecosystem with raised beds, a small herb area, peach and pear trees, smaller plants on square and rectangular boxes and Comfrey to generate plant food. They learnt about sowing and how to look after, grow and harvest organic food, gaining theoretical and practical knowledge. They grew vegetables and herbs and organised a harvest celebration by cooking and eating together with the wider local community.
It’s a Spring and Summer term activity.
