We Grow is a Community Interest Company focussed on connecting people with each other and with land to grow food together in groups and to swap seeds and seedlings at community events. In the year to 31 August 2024 we: Received a grant from Edge fund for £1,000 to be used for building the website. This work was completed. - Completed a commissioned project at Rotherfield St Martin (RSM). - Completed work funded by Household Support Fund – outreach and establishment of community leaders. - Received a grant from Lund Fund for RSM extension and Uckfield projects. Work was almost completed on RSM extension and Uckfield was just starting so most of the grant is deferred into y/e 2025 when the work has been taking place. We believe the benefits to the community are: Improved physical and mental health, reduced cost of food shopping, developing new friendships, learning new skills in gardening and tending crops, experiencing more community cohesion both in peoples’ own co-ops and also through the advent of the monthly meet-ups of their local network of co-ops, development of new skills for trainees and volunteers.
The company’s stakeholders are the community of new co-ops. We hold regular swap events and meet-ups for the co-ops, where the community leader talks with members to find out how their co-op is going, giving any support they ask for in terms of building community cohesion within their group. We also have a WhatsApp group, where members can ask us and each other for advice.
