We are creating an urban ‘allotment’ area on Carfin Street in Govanhill, Glasgow. Anyone living on Carfin Street and the surrounding nearby area can apply for use of a planter to grow fruit and veg. All materials needed such as soil, seeds, and basic gardening equipment will be provided, along with a series of free workshops for participants on how to start their growing space. There will also be a weekly time when someone is on hand to provide help and answer any questions.

Govanhill Baths is a grassroots activist-based organisation in the heart of Govanhill delivering wide ranging health, wellbeing, arts, environmental and heritage projects. Our aim is to reopen the Baths as a Wellbeing Centre, contributing to the regeneration of the area and meeting the needs and aspirations of our community.
