Schools Project

Our Schools Project, Dig For The Future, is helping thousands of schools and children across the UK to grow some of their own vegetables.

We’ve designed two schools gardens to fit in perfectly with term times. The Spring Schools Garden can be planted early in the Spring Term with lots of veg ready to be harvested by the school summer holidays. The Autumn Schools Garden can be planted in September and into October, giving pupils lots of veg to be harvested in the run up to Christmas and beyond.
