On Saturday June 14th the Shared Garden Project, located in West Bridgford, Nottingham, held one of its open afternoons.
About 80 visitors from in and around the area popped in to see just how a group of local individuals and families have organised a garden project based on sharing the work, expertise and produce.
There was a chance to chat to people who set up the project, see how community growing can work, and sample some of the produce. A glorious afternoon which appear to have inspired quite a few people. As allotment waiting lists are long these days, you don’t have to be put off. Perhaps you know someone in your area with a large garden they could do with some help maintaining? Get a few people together, form a garden group and set up your own mini project. For advice and information, visit the Shared Garden website: http://www.sharedgarden.co.uk/
