Area: Bolton South

Brief Description:

We are an association which has an allotment in Great Lever with the objective to improve the local environment by planting vegetables, fruit trees, fruit bushes and flowers. We then supply crops to local food banks such as The Well in Farnworth.

Full Description:

We also support the community by organising and holding events throughout the year e.g., Summer Harvest Day, we bring the local community together. We are also involved with uniting various groups, such as, South Sedan group, Creative Futures Group, Warm Space. Bringing them mixed together by holding BBQs through spring and summer months. With the success of these events, we want to expand our focus by also moving into life skills projects by holding basic training lessons on when to plant crops and how to care for them from seeds to harvesting. Our focus is with Parents and Children group and local ESOL groups, which we have been in discussions with and believe will be skills for life and could also help with job opportunities for some in the future.
