If you're one of the thousands of people without an outdoor area to call your own, or perhaps don't have enough room to satisfy your planting urges - why not sign up to the Landshare scheme?

Simply follow this link and you could find someone locally with some spare land available for you to grow your own produce in! Or, if you have some free space and are not using it, why not sign up and let someone grow on your land - they may even throw some beautiful fresh produce your way!

About the Landshare Scheme:

Landshare brings people together who have a passion for home-grown food.

It’s for people who want to:

Grow fruit and vegetables but don’t have anywhere to do it
Have a spare bit of land they’re prepared to share
Can help in some way – from sharing knowledge and lending tools to helping out on the plot itself
Are already growing and want to join in the community

Landshare began from TV’s River Cottage. It began when Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall helped some Bristol families grow veg on unused council land. The experience was so inspiring to everyone involved, that River Cottage decided to see if it would work nationwide. Now Landshare is a national movement of more than 49,000 people.
