Roots Allotments reposted this
Every now and then you find a business that makes you go WOW. I had that moment when I heard about Roots Allotments and had to get Ed Morrison on The FoodTalk Show. Their insight is simple - average waiting times for allotments is more than ten years, and people are increasingly interested in growing their own food but don't have the space....so they are transforming urban spaces into thriving community-growing hubs. Their mission is to get more people involved in sustainable food growth, and have created a membership-based offering that helps people succeed. They already have 9 sites, and there are more in the pipeline. Do have a listen it is genuinely inspiring stuff.
