This March a series of interactive workshops organised by food growers from across the Liverpool City Region will be heading to the Open Eye Gallery.
The Liverpool Food Growers Network is a collaboration between 25 community food growing spaces across the Liverpool City Region, all striving to improve the local environment, shorten lengthy supply-chains, empower communities, and enhance biodiversity.
The network also aims to increase education around urban agriculture and food waste, and tackle food insecurity by distributing fresh, healthy and locally grown food to the people who need it most.
The workshops include windowsill growing, beekeeping, composting, wellbeing and food growing, a step-by-step guide on developing your own community garden, and designing your future food neighbourhood.
