We are over the moon to have formed a partnership with Seeds for Growth charity to launch our ‘We Grow London’ programme. We are coming together to meet our common agendas of supporting and inspiring communities to engage in growing their own food, which has so many benefits in terms of bringing communities together, addressing mental and physical wellbeing and helping those in food poverty. The charity launched in 2006, and supports tenants on social housing estates to create and enjoy their own community gardens. Their goal is to support 600 initiatives a year UK wide. She Grows Veg are proud to be providing our seeds, education resources and expertise to help their mission. We will also be donating our Chelsea 2025 exhibit to the charity to distribute in disadvantaged areas of London, providing these growing projects with hundreds of incredible food plants. Today we met with Gregory Cohn, CEO of the charity to kick off our joint venture. London is just the beginning of our shared mission to get EVERYONE growing!

🎃 Happy Halloween from She Grows Veg Ltd! A huge thanks to the brilliant Jack who carved our logo into a pumpkin! 🎃

🌍🎃 Help us to stop Halloween food waste and food miles! 🎃🌍
🎃 Did you know that 18,000 tonnes of pumpkins are thrown away in the UK every Halloween? That’s equivalent to the weight of 1,500 double-decker buses! Most of these pumpkins are never eaten, contributing to massive food waste. 🎃 To compound the problem, most of those pumpkins will be imported from abroad with a horrendous carbon footprint and food miles. We at She Grows Veg Ltd are making it our mission to encourage as many people as possible to grow their own pumpkins next year with zero food miles and cook and eat their pumpkins this year! If you follow us on Instagram or Meta you’ll see the delicious recipes we’ll be sharing in the next week. We’re also discounting all of our pumpkin and squash seeds until Halloween so that people can grow their own pumpkins next year. 🌍Help us to raise awareness of this huge food waste issue by sharing this post🌍 #halloween #foodwaste

We are absolutely delighted to be featured in The Sun today, after chatting with the wonderful Veronica Lorraine !
Black carrots anyone? Storage tomatoes that last for months after picking? Or perhaps you'd rather a purple cauliflower...? I finally got to speak to the two legends Lucy Hutchings and Kate Cotterill about their amazing company She Grows Veg Ltd 🍅 They've travelled the world to find some of the most amazing heritage seeds that you can grow here in the UK. They're so inspiring and lovely - please do take a look. They're not the only ones falling in love with heirloom seeds either - Mitch McCulloch has has a brilliant new encyclopaedic book out called The Seed Hunter. And there's a charity out there called Garden Organic which is urging volunteers to become Variety Champions - and adopt at-risk heritage seeds. Can you guess the theme of today's column in The Sun yet? 🤣 Plus an easy competition to win a Cobra leaf blower and some tips and tricks. Have a look!! 🥕 🥔 🍅 🥒 https://lnkd.in/eAaq2XGi
