🌱 Join the Grow Your Road Community! 🌱
We’re excited to invite you and your community to participate in an incredible initiative that will get people growing food together this summer. Grow Your Road Project is an opportunity for Birmingham & Sandwell residents and teachers to come together and create a more sustainable and connected future.
Do you dream of turning your street into an urban oasis filled with edible plants? Or perhaps you're an educator who envisions your school class as a catalyst for positive change, learning about nature and sustainability firsthand. By joining this project, you will have the chance to revitalise your neighbourhood or classroom and inspire others to do the same.
