Grow Zones - now is the time

This is the moment when the sap begins to rise and when thoughts move to the garden. Grow Zones is about to be advertised nationally and our aim is to get more than fifty teams across the UK enjoying working with each other as they grow more of their own food. Would you like to form a team? Can you pass on the news about Grow Zones to your own networks?

A news release has just gone out about Grow Zones. We are very keen that this reach the widest possible audience. Here are some extracts:

The secret to growing food in your own garden isn’t about expert knowledge, space or time – it is about doing it with a group of friends and helping one another get started. Grow Zones, a national community growing project, brings people together locally to help one another grow fruit and vegetables in their own gardens.

Imagine a harvest of delicious fresh fruit and vegetables, grown by you in your garden. Our first thoughts might be the hard work and time, the pests, or not knowing where to start? Grow Zones has been created to address the challenges facing a new grower with little time, little knowledge and little space.

Grow Zones teams are springing up all over the country, bringing people together to help one another get growing fruit and vegetables in their own gardens this year.

The full News Release can be accessed here.

If you can send it to any of your networks please do. We want everyone to hear about it.
