Project X: Salford volunteers needed for a shared edible growing space

Incredible Education are looking for volunteers for Project X located in Eccles.

Project X is all about creating a shared edible growing space that will offer a range of activities, including growing and cooking your own food.

Their aim for Project X is to construct a forest school woodland area, a community garden centre, a community cafe and even retail space.

Incredible Education are a social enterprise that deliver a variety of programmes in education that support individuals health and well being. These projects are delivered through horticulture and are facilitated to both young and older individuals.

Ian Bocock, the director and horticulture educational leader, said: “Volunteering is an important expression of community.

“For this particular project we want this site to become embedded within the local community, so it is designed, built and used by them”.

Thank you for taking the time to come and visit us @SharAugust – We have a great deal to do but with our enthusiasm and the support of partners and local community we will get there https://t.co/v3GlQA9Glh
