Growing Local CIC was established in 2009 to inspire our local community to grow,
cook and eat local food. The organisation took on a new 19 acre site in 2023 to set
up a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) market garden to grow vegetables for
a box scheme and establish an educational garden and teaching resource to inspire
our future generations.
Our CSA veg box scheme started in July 2024 and we are now looking for an
experienced coordinator to work closely with our growers and customers to help
deliver the scheme and drive future sales. CSAs are a partnership between those
who eat the food and those who grow it to ensure fresh, local, nutritious, sustainably
grown vegetables are available for the local community. Veg boxes are packed and
delivered each Wednesday for customers to collect from our garden or from two hub
points in Hereford – we are looking to expand these.
Please do look at our website to read more about our organisation and the work that
we do – www.growinglocal.org.uk.
Growing Local aspire to champion a collaborative work culture of mutual
responsibility, trust, sharing of skills and the facilitating of improved work/life balance.
