The Incredible Edible project is an urban gardening project which was started in 2008 by Pamela Warhurst, Mary Clear and a group of like-minded people in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. The project aims to bring people together through actions around local food, helping to change behaviour towards the environment and to build a kinder and more resilient world.
The local Incredible Edible scheme is growing. The Gardening Group spent a morning in the rain breaking up old pallets and constructing our very own WI planter to be filled with edible plants. Some very happy faces and some real fun was had amidst much banging, sawing, chatting and tea drinking! Please pop along and see for yourself everyone’s efforts so far. The group mainly meet on Sat morning 10-12, the area is open for visits anytime. Old School courtyard in Lee Street, Uppermill.
