From Growing in Haringey:
Lets grow together more local food for health, soul and natureHelp Growing in Haringey so we can help you!
Growing in Haringey was set up in 2010 to provide support and co-ordination for the many community gardening and sustainable food growing projects in this borough and to promote the huge environmental, health and social benefits they create. A key aim is to increase local food production across all corners of Haringey, involving the whole population including in home gardens, schools, public parks and open spaces. To do this effectively, we need to be able to show the number of people and projects working on these lines here in Haringey, and show that you are backing GIH and what it stands for. There are two simple ways that you can show your support, and help us work more effectively for you (and a simple response form below):
What GIH does and what the network offers you:
At present, GIH is run by a very small organising committee of volunteers, all of us also involved in local projects as well as finding time to develop GIH to meet the need for an effective borough-wide information-sharing, networking, support and advice body. The basic core services we currently offer you are:-
We know there is so much more needed we are busy applying for grants to pay for at least a small amount of reliable core work, and to develop specific outreach support for schools and health-related gardening projects. Last summer, a small grant from Capital Growth let us pay for a just couple of days a month work responding to inquiries and producing a monthly newsletter, but this invaluable help has now ended. We know many of you are putting huge amounts of time and work into your own gardening and other community projects. But if you would be interested in getting more involved with GIH, wed love to hear from you. See our web-site for how to get involved, or phone us on 07407 093150.
Please do register to show your support for Growing in Haringey, and if you can, please, send us some money SOON (target £10 per project or group).
