A multi-story car park is being turned into a food garden.
Amazing! Tell me more.
The Vyse Street Food Project aims to improve and reduce the city’s carbon footprint whilst delivering quality, clean food to residents.
The project is a collaboration between the Birmingham City Council and Slow Food UK, while the garden is being designed by Urban Design Hub LTD.
Is it just a farm?
Nope - in fact there’s loads going on! There will be a community space and garden for locals to hang out in, and even an educational hub and café.
If you want to support community food projects in Birmingham in the meantime, you can do so through Incredible Surplus.
This article aligns with the UN SDGs Good Health and Wellbeing and Climate Action.
