Tales from the plot
Tinker & bloom, a local organisation delivering environmental participatory
arts projects, has been given funding by Heritage Lottery to deliver a
project that will celebrate Bristol's allotment culture.
Working along side the council's allotment department and the New Museum of
Bristol, tinker and bloom will be interviewing allotment gardeners about
their experience of having an allotment. These interviews will make up part
of a touring exhibition which aims to be platform to share top gardening
tips and favourite recipes as well as raising awareness of the value of
locally grown food and the role allotments play in people's lives.
Gardeners will also be invited to visit schools and share their knowledge
and experience with younger generations.
If you would like more information about the project or would be interested
in talking to tinker & bloom about your experience of having an allotment,
we would love to hear from you. Please call Eileen on 0117 9078 369.
