Landshare brings together people who have a passion for home-grown food.It’s for people who:
· Want to grow veg but don’t have anywhere to do it
· Have a spare bit of land they’re prepared to share
· Can help in some way – from sharing knowledge and lending tools to helping out on the plot itself
· Support the idea of freeing up more land for growing
· Are already growing and want to join in the community
Landshare came out of TV’s River Cottage. It began when Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall helped some Bristol families grow veg on derelict council land. The experience was so inspiring that River Cottage decided to see if it would work nationwide. Now Landshare is a national movement of more than 50,000 people, go to their web site by clicking here.
