Can you help us grow a sustainable food enterprise that will continue to serve the community in and around Farnham?

Help Farnham Local Food community veg garden create a sustainable future by training the next generation of growers. http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/grow-a-grower

We are a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) project on the Surrey-Hampshire border and have successfully run our local food enterprise for the last six years.

We grow vegetables to organic principles year-round from two small sites of less than an acre each and we supply over 75 families in the summer season, less in winter, about 65.Work is carried out by a wonderful team of volunteers led by our professional grower, Susie. But we are looking to train an apprentice to take on from Susie in due course.

So, we have taken the big step to employ a young, local man called Gavin and have re-structured our harvest share prices to pay for him part-time. Now we need help to pay for his Soil Association accredited training and related costs. We need to find at least £3,000 per annum for the next two years.
