We’re delighted to showcase our volunteer’s terrific work in the national magazine, Grow Your Own (September edition).

We were invited by editor Lucy Halsall to prepare case studies about how Master Gardeners help people and communities grow their own fruit and veg at home and on communal land. See images below.

Our thanks to Lucy and her team.
