The Food Group is working to strengthen the resilience of Brighton & Hove in the production and delivery of food. We aim to develop a relocalised food infrastructure as well as encouraging individual and community action to grow our own food.

Grow Your Neighbour's Own garden share scheme
There are many residents of B&H who don't have gardens but would like to grow their own food, and many other residents who have gardens but aren't able to grow food, whether for time, knowledge or mobility reasons. The Grow Your Neighbour's Own garden share scheme aims to match these people up! All levels of gardening experience welcomed. You can register your interest on the Grow Your Neighbour's Own website at http://grow.transitionbrightonandhove.org.uk or by phone (contact details on the website).
Transition allotment
The TBH allotment plot is located next to the Whitehawk Community Food Project (directions here). It needs lots of work as it’s largely covered in brambles – we are currently planning how we want the site to look, where we want to build a shelter, where we want to plant things, etc. We’ll be taking a Permaculture approach to designing the site, so especially invite anyone with knowledge of Permaculture principles to help out. But everyone is welcome – regardless of experience, knowledge, etc!
Allotment work days take place on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month – see our events listings for more details.
