Shieldfield Grows is a programme of activity that seeks to promote sustainable food production, fair land usage and community flourishing. Shieldfield Grows enables people to grow vegetables, fruit and herbs in their homes, on balconies, gardens and allotments. We have also developed part of SAW’s garden as a space for growing together. This is a collaboration between Dwellbeing Shieldfield and Shieldfield Art Works (SAW).
Sage advice: a series of workshops with professionals in their field where together we learn lots of new gardening skills from how to plant trees to how to build your own compost bin. Booking essential.
Regularly weekly growing sessions: come to help us grow and nurture fruit and veg in the SAW garden as we learn how to grow seasonally, meet new people from our local community and help Shieldfield flourish together. On Wednesday mornings from 10am - 12pm.
Lettuce eat: Monthly lunches where we make a meal from the produce we have been growing and enjoy eating together.
