Grow Cardiff is a community gardening charity set up by local people in 2015 to create and sustain shared food growing, wildlife friendly spaces for all.
We're super excited for launch week! After 18 months of working alongside teachers and TAs, we're ready to launch our FREE Grow Your School toolkit. All schools welcome to attend our webinar and in-person launch. Come and find out more. Help for your school to grow successfully
Really excited to be taking part in this event today: from 12noon at Fitzalan High School. Pop down and say hi :) Lots of brilliant stalls and opportunities to get that feel good glow! @CardiffSW
It has been a pleasure working with your lovely Year 1&3 pupils this year creating your Edible Playground. Shout out also to the Eco Committee who came to learn about worms for the wormery. πͺ± #edibleplaygrounds#treesforcities
Year 1 have harvested vegetables from our edible garden just in time for Year 3's harvest collective worship. They have grown carrots, beetroot, potatoes and onions. They used their maths measuring skills to order the carrots and now they can't wait to taste them! #stpcardiffyr1

Social prescribing is about connection.
Itβs a person-centred approach that links people to local community assets, helping improve wellbeing and reduce inequalities.
Hereβs what those at @GrowCardiff had to say about their experience π
Just one sleep to go! Join us tomorrow in the beautiful autumn sunshine, at the Dusty Forge, Ely for an afternoon of stories, song and delectable delights from the garden as we celebrate 10 years of growing!
We've got our @GrowWellCardiff Open Day TOMORROW, we've been busy prepping with our volunteers & would love to show you what we've achieved, Thursday 15th May 1-3pm at Grange Medical Practice, Bishop St, Grange CF11 6PG.
All welcome, fresh garden food and plant give away too π
Do you work in a primary school that wants to garden and grow this spring? Need some help? Book onto our FREE event in partnership with the brilliant team from Cardiff University this coming Thursday 10th April from 4pm :)
