Incredible Edible in the Golcar area has started growing raspberry canes and herbs on waste land. Local people have reclaimed land that was once outside toilets space and have had successful bean crops for 2 years. Now planting in alternative planters, bookcase, discarded wire shopping basket, paint tin and wheel barrow gradually involving neighbours and local people. While delivering posters they have been offered planting space behind a pub.
Wheel barrows full of eatable produce - broad beans, onions, kale, garlic and herbs - were pushed out and about on Golcar Lily Day to advertise an inspirational talk by Incredible Edible Todmordon (of River Cottage fame) on June 6th 4 pm at Colne Valley Garden Centre Golcar, organised by local people. Everyone welcome. There will also be a questionnaire for local people to inspire ideas in the Golcar area.
