The Growing Project is a community-led growing scheme led by Grand Union, working with organisations who support the vulnerably housed and people in crisis. Aiming to ‘Green-Sense’ the city, The Growing Project improves sites across Birmingham by ‘growing food and creating green spaces’, sites that are developed, tended and nurtured by homeless people. Currently the project is operating in St Anne’s Hostel, Birmingham, the initial allotment garden is a collaborative partnership between Grand Union and the residents, supported by CRISIS Skylight, SIFA Fireside and Modern Clay.
