Who we are

February 2010

We aim to:

• set up and successfully run a community growing group, open to all members of the parish;

• develop knowledge and skills across the community and promote the activity of growing plants for food and a variety of other uses; and

• support members of the community who may have learning or physical differences who would like to be involved in growing plants.

The group has spent a number of years looking for land and was considering folding until HogCO wrote to HM Channings Wood Prison. HogCO has also provided advice on developing social enterpises.

HogCO organised for NSALG's Allan Cavill to visit the site and provide useful advice on setting uo allotments.
