Interested in the role of community gardening, city and care farms in advancing the nature for wellbeing agenda? This unique event brings together Social Farms & Gardens member sites, academics, policy makers and others working in this area. The event is interactive in nature, with some major speakers who are leading work in the area.

Building on our work within the Horizon Europe / UKRI GreenME project, the event aims to act as a catalyst for wider work, bring organisations and people together and be a space for mainstreaming nature for wellbeing. Attendees will benefit from the launch of new tools and services, take part in a wide variety of interactive workshops, present their ideas through our poster and evaluation tool showcases and visit some amazing sites in Greater Manchester.

The event brings together not just the Social Farms & Gardens community, but the APRIN network and the European Federation of City Farms and beyond.
