We continued our Growing Together project in 2023-2024 with funding from People and Places Community Fund and the Postcode Lottery. This continued our tailored growing sessions forpositive physical and mental health, twice a week. Arranged in 11 week blocks with planning breaks as we orientated ourselves around the seasonal year with celebrations and outings after each block. Our contracted team remained the same at the start of the year, becoming more confident with their roles and the project. In November we took on a new contractor who had been a committed volunteer to support our managing director during a period of ill health. They continued to be a valued member of the team. Our team now consists of 6 people each contracting valuable services to the Salad Garden. We continued to work with a range of adults of all ages from a wide demographic including people who identify as neurodiverse, refugees, adults with learning difficulties, mental health challenges, people who are disabled and many more. We grew a large number of vegetable seedlings that we were able to give away and also grow our own extra veg for volunteers to take home including runner beans, tomatoes and cucumbers. We continued our partnership with Bridgend College who ran an 2 accredited courses on basic introductions to horticulture at our site and Pencoed College site which made it more accessible for those with extra needs, this was funded through Wels Gov and free to participants and our team were able to support those who needed extra help. We were awarded an Awards for All grant for a new polytunnel which became a dedicated volunteer oriented space with a tidy tool area, seating and refreshment area, new raised beds, and dedicated packing area for handling salad. This massively improved our volunteer experience and created more space and comfort for everybody. We took over management of Riverside Community Garden from Grow Cardiff and received funding from Cardiff Council Food Direct to pilot this transition before committing and receiving 1 year of funding from WCVA Volunteering Wales to improve volunteering opportunities and experiences at this site. From April 2024 we ran two Gardening for Positive Mental and Physical Wellbeing sessions at this site every week with our team supporting people to get involved, sharing the produce with volunteers. We commissioned research of local pantries and food co-ops serving low income residents of Cardiff with affordable food to find out what vegetables they would like to receive, focusing on culturally appropriate foods for these communities. This will influence our growing plans for the future and we hope to be able to donate surplus vegetables to these organisations in the future.
