PRESERVING
Preserve food you have grown in your gardens by making jams, pickles, sauces and chutneys – a yummy way to reduce food waste!
FORAGING
We are going on a berry hunt! Organise a foraging expedition with someone who knows their way around a hedgerow.
PLANT SWAP
A parish plant swap or sale is a great way to encourage people to grow their own food at home.
PLANTS IN POTS
A nice idea if you are short on space is plants in pots. These are especially great for children.
VERTICAL GARDEN
“We don’t have any land in our parish” is a common problem. However, if we apply some imagination…
VEGETABLE GARDEN
Could you turn a piece of parish grounds into an allotment?
ORCHARD
Apples, plums, cherries, pears, or even the elusive quince can all be grown in your parish.
