Research into Urban Farming

Between us we know how to grow our own food, and have been doing so for millions of years. But are agricultural skills being lost? Is that knowledge being shared where it is most needed?

 

The research we are doing into urban farming attempts to understand what the challenges are when it comes to growing in the city. With that understanding, our mission is to bring urban farming to those that are most in need of a sustainable, self-sufficient food source.

 

We are interested in the networks that can be established around the growing of food, whether that's sharing some tomatoes with your neighbours or responding to a question about pest treatment. Can individual knowledge then go further to support others in your community?

 

We are running events in conjunction with our research - both to increase our learning and to share it with others.

Keep an eye on our events page for upcoming events.

One of our research aims is to look at and develop the networks that exist around the growing of food. This means we would love to hear from you, and there are different ways you can get involved in the project.
