Social Horticulture for Experts & Dummies (SHED)
1 comment North Coast
SHED is a community gardening project based at the Community Roots Garden in Main Street West Kilbride. We have weekly gardening sessions, offering a relaxed space to learn no-dig and permaculture food growing whilst coming together for friendship. The group is as much focussed on mental and physical wellbeing as it is on food security and sustainability. We distribute the food we grow amongst the volunteers and the local Village Larder.

Giving people choice in our food larder and increasing their dignity
No comments North Coast
We are Largs food hub and have recently started on Nourish Scotland's Dignity Project. We believe giving people as much choice as possible is one way to provide dignity in food provision. We would like to provide a pay forward scheme for our local church of the Nazarene which provides meals for £2 and children are free. If we provide a free ticket and encourage them to go and perhaps by going ourselves this might show that it is ok and take away the stigma of excepting charity.
