At Tangmere Growers, we believe that growing food should also grow community, confidence, and wellbeing. We are committed to:
- Supporting one another through friendship, inclusion, and shared learning
- Encouraging sustainable, chemical-free growing practices that protect wildlife and the environment
- Promoting biodiversity and respect for nature
- Providing opportunities for education and hands-on learning for all generations
- Creating a welcoming and accessible space where everyone can benefit from time outdoors and connection with others
- Working alongside community organisations to improve wellbeing through gardening and social interaction
We believe allotments are not just places to grow vegetables – they are places where people thrive.
