Working with Community Groups
Community projects sound great, but sometimes you can end up holding the shovel. To get a community growing site off the ground requires many hands to make work light. This session will give you some tools for:
- Putting community engagement at the heart of your project.
- Creating an inclusive community culture.
- On-going communications and decision making structures to set your project up for success.
Join Anna, Kathy and Vaso from Claver Hill for a session focused on food growing through working with community groups. Anna, Kathy and Vaso have been involved in many food growing initiatives that involve high community involvement and engagement. They can share their insight on how to approach members for your community growing project such as a neighbourhood allotment or community garden. They will share engagement, recruitment and retainment techniques and the different types of volunteers you are likely to get.
Date: Sunday 27 April 2025 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM.
Location: Claver Hill Community Farm, Ridge Lane , Lancaster, LA1 3JY.
