Find a green space in your neighbourhood for growing

Another reminder from Fed Farmgarden about an advisory document aimed at inspiring communities to find disused green spaces for food growing (featuring a number of FCFCG-created case studies), launched by the Department for Communities and Local Government.
Called Space for Food Growing, the guide gives local people practical advice on new ways to get access to less conventional sources of land and green space to grow their own food as well as suggestions for wider community involvement, helpful tips on how to get funding and examples of projects already in bloom.
