Calder Food Hub – September Update

The new shed, which will house the tool library, was erected on Plot 20, our allotment, in time for the official opening of Redacre Growing Project on Saturday 24th September. The event bought plot holders together for a ribbon cutting ceremony with the Mayor of Mytholmroyd and the ‘Sambalifax’ drum band. Food refreshments and an evening fire followed. The tool library will be of immediate benefit to allotment holders setting up recently acquired plots at this new allotment development.

This work was completed with the help of a grant from the Big Lottery ‘Local Food Programme’.

Planning for our second ‘Fruity Festival’, scheduled for 29th October has begun. The community harvest celebration brings together local groups.
