Food gardening 4 all

FG4A is a fledgling community group based in East Sheen, London, UK, that hopes to encourage aspiring or beginner food gardeners to gain confidence and build their knowledge in growing their own produce.

Christine Chatfield who organises FG4A is a retired teacher who started growing vegetables in her teens and 20’s. After a break to have her children, she now grows her own fruit and veg on her allotment that she has had for over 15 years. Last year she grew nearly 300 kilos of fruit and veg on her 123 sq. metre plot all on organic and no-dig principles.


“Today, in a time of great uncertainty, I feel that learning how to grow our own food is a skill we should all try and achieve.”

Christine
