The main actions we want to take are:
1.DEVELOP A NEW DUNDEE FOOD GROWING MAP and EVENT CALENDAR
- Over 30 community growing spaces to visit. Access to 100s of events to attend and volunteering opportunities throughout the year.
- Community Gardens will increase their capacity and visibility through the Dundee Food Growing / Community Garden Network, training and support.
- Volunteers will gain from better physical and mental health and local biodiversity will be improved.
- Neighbours will benefit from gaining new skills and friendships and access free local produce, increasingly important with the cost of living crisis and given that £1 out of every £10 we spend is on food and that 30% of greenhouse emissions in the UK are from food production.
2. REVAMP FOOD GROWING TOOL AND SEED LIBRARY
We aim to save people money and reduce waste and carbon emissions through these activities and increase the food growing spaces and their productivity across our city.
- Borrow tools and books to get growing your own food
- Free access to one-to-one advice,
- Free seeds, seedlings, cuttings and plants and
- 40+ free weekly workshops.
3. YOUTH-LED FRIDAYS FOR FUTURE EVENTS
- Each month we will focus on different climate-related topics to enable and support our community to reflect, learn and take action for a greener and fairer Dundee.
- We’ll celebrate food, nature and community through free gigs in the garden, films, food, games, conversations for change, etc.
