Taking place during Great Big Green Week, the festival empowers individuals of all ages to connect with nature, learn practical skills, and envision thriving cities of the future.

Showcasing London's fantastic food growing spaces

A London's largest food growing network, we want to encourage the huge range of food growing projects in our green city to join the festival to raise the profile of urban food growing, share skills and help more people discover the joy of growing your own and feeding your communities. So, if you want to attract new volunteers or promote your community garden events, this festival is for you.
