This project was led by the Burdett Foundation. It explored the potential of hyper-local food growing on the Burdett Estate by developing an existing community garden and delivering a programme of food-production-related activities to build the skills and confidence of local people.
They increased the number of raised beds by seven, improved pathway access and planted fruit trees.
Session content was decided by the participants themselves, including feedback from the wider community. The type of produce they grew was chosen by residents i.e., culturally appropriate, clearly recognisable ingredients.
