Do you and your family want to learn how to grow your own fruits and vegetables at home? Then join Groundwork East’s free Online Family Growing course starting Thursday 23rd March!
You'll receive your very own Grow Pack*! It will include, gloves, tools, seeds, trays, labels, etc. everything you need to get started. Then, across the entire growing season, Groundwork will send you 12 emailed newsletters packed full of online learning resources, activities and information to help you and your family gain the knowledge and confidence to grow your own food.
* Please note that we have a limited number of Grow Packs available and this will be offered to families living in specific funded areas on a first come first serve basis. However, by signing up you will still have access to all of the online content throughout the growing season. We will provide you with a list of the pack contents and where to purchase items from so that you can create your own if you wish.
Simply fill in the form below and join our mailing list to take part. If you live in one of our funded areas (see list below), then we will post your Grow Pack.
