We will hold a schools’ food growing conference in early 2026. Please fill in this form if you would like to take part.
IEL has worked with four schools in 2025, capturing information about the rich and varied ways that Lambeth schools are supporting food growing.
Each school is very different – some have years of experience of developing their food growing project, and some are nearer the beginning of their journey. Some have larger amounts of space, and some have almost none.
Our aim is to celebrate the achievements of people who are driven by passion for food growing. We want to highlight the fantastic ways that they are managing, usually with very little funding, to change children’s lives by growing their own food.
