Growing Food, People and Community for a Just World

About

Founded in 2004, we grow food, people and community for a fair and just world. Our vision informs our two charitable aims which are the guiding principles for our work: To provide opportunities for the direct experience of natural wilderness environments for children, young people and adults To support young persons to develop their full potential so they are able to contribute positively to society and the environment We operate in the boroughs of Camden, Islington and Southwark and work with people of all ages, particularly children and young people. Working from educational and bio-diverse garden spaces such as the Story Garden and Floating Garden in King’s Cross and the Paper Garden in Canada Water we combine activities such as urban food growing, supporting bees, carpentry, cooking, and healthy eating with dialogue, storytelling, creative writing, performance and art, silence and stillness. These practices help us to create the conditions for people to come together in a fuller and more connected sense of who they are and what they are a part of and, from that space, to practically and creatively contribute to ecological and social change.
