Grow Bradford

Grow Bradford Grow Bradford promotes Community Led Food Growing & Biodiversity across Bradford District.

Grow Bradford has 2 main aims.

1) It is an initiative to promote and increase food growing (and biodiversity) in Bradford. 2) It aims to promote resource and information sharing and a spirit of cooperation in order for a variety of organisations and individuals to work together to best effect in promoting and increasing food growing (and biodiversity) in Bradford

These are put in to effect through the 3 following main objectives:

a) Connecting: In order to do this Grow Bradford engages in networking and documenting food growing projects and activities, and those linked projects and activities that improve biodiversity. b) Growing: Grow Bradford is also involved in practical permaculture, food growing initiatives in order to engage more people in such activities and to create more spaces and practitioners to work in such ways. c) Mapping: Grow Bradford emphasizes using mapping, art and a creative, visual approach to engage people and promote information through a website and in other venues and activities.

Huge thanks to all the wonderful volunteers who helped Bradford BEES and Bradford Apple Group with juicing organic apples on Tuesday 15th September.

It was a very productive day of cleaning, chopping and juicing apples to produce our wonderful organic apple juice that will be for sale on Apple Day in Bowling Community orchard.

Each year the volunteers produce many litres of delicious apple juice which will be sold in order to support the upkeep of the organic heritage orchard.

Do come along on Sunday 11th October between 12 and 4pm and try some for yourself. We will be juicing again on the day using a traditional apple press. Come and have a go yourself!
