GRO-FUN has one simple goal- to increase the amount of organic food growing & growers in local, urban neighbourhoods.
We have a dream of neighbours collectively growing & sharing their food; knowledge & tools, of schools that supply their own
canteens with fresh produce, school grounds lively with 'gardeners of tomorrow' caring for their school veg patch & finally, of work-places where staff can enjoy relaxing, outdoor places where salad can be plucked & eaten.
Happy & healthy communitites grow and share their food together.
“GRO-FUN is a fantastic idea … it’s a simple, effective and fun solution to introducing people to growing in urban areas”. Alys Fowler, gardener and presenter of BBC2 Gardeners' World (also the founder of the first GROFUN replica, in Birmingham).
"The Many Hands scheme is such a genius idea". (Lia Leendertz, The Guardian)
