SF&G has plenty of information about London's community growing scene, including:
London Harvest Festival: The 21st London Harvest Festival took place on Saturday, September 28th at Woodlands Farm in Greenwich. The event is held by London’s community growers each year, providing a wonderful opportunity for a day out for the whole family.
London Map: (published 2014). A colourful map of London's city farms and community gardens. Many of these sites are open to visitors or offer opportunities for volunteering, work training or education.
Resources Page: There are lots of useful information resources available for London farmers, gardeners and growers in our resources section.
