We are now entering the season when gardens, allotments and growing spaces begin to bear fruit (and veg!). If you find you have a glut of any crop, rather than compost it, consider donating it!

We are always looking to offer more fresh produce to people who are finding things a bit tight, but we have to buy almost all of our fresh food in.

If you have find you have crops to spare, we can link you up with a local food bank, social supermarket, or community café, where they will be put to good use. 🌱🍆🥒🌽🌶🥦🥕
