Burgess Park Food Project

On site at the Burgess Park Food Project

Latest newsletter from the food project about the £46,000 grant from Community Spaces.

The Burgess Park Food Project organizers (supported by the Friends of Burgess Park) have got the go ahead to open a new community garden in Burgess Park on the site of Glengall / Derwent Wharf at the top of the Surrey Canal Walk. A new group has been established to run the project.

The aim of the group and the garden is to promote healthy, local and fresh food, and will be a growing project open to all, a place to learn and share skills related to growing, food, permaculture, sustainability and related subjects.

Please complete the questionnnaire.

They are half way through a funding bid, and a thorough consultation is needed to ensure they properly represent local needs. A copy of the questionnaire is attached.

They would appreciate if you could fill in the form and return it to burgessfoodproject@gmail.com or drop a completed form at East St or Peckham Library or Brothers Food and Wine on the bridge on Trafalgar Avenue. Alternatively, come to the open day on saturday 11th June and see what's going on.

Please feel free to pass the form on. The more ideas and support received, the more representative the project will be.
