GIY’s vision is for a healthier, more connected and more sustainable world where people grow their own food. The organisation brings people together in community groups and online to inspire and empower them to grow vegetables.
The local GIY group needs a mix of interests, abilities and experience to make this a success – so don’t be shy. Go along and bring any family, friends or neighbours who might be interested too.
