Thanks to funding from Trusthouse Charitable, Hereford City Council and the Coronavirus Community Fund Growing Local have assembled and delivered thousands of mini seed growing packs out to local Hereford and Leominster schools, nurseries, food banks, council departments and other local groups and organisations since the Lockdown. Initially in April and May packs of Sunflowers, Peas and Climbing Beans were delivered, currently we are in phase two of our project and can offer Salad Leaves and Cress packs throughout the summer. If you have a way of distributing our packs out to families then please do get in touch to louisa@growinglocal.org.uk.
The seed pack project has been in replacement of our usual schools educational programme of gardening workshops.
