Energy Garden

Energy Gardens are spaces for people to come together to grow food, enjoy improved local environments

Energy Garden supports communities to access, grow food and encourage biodiversity around transport infrastructure. Over the last seven years, Energy Garden has secured funding to negotiate the legal permissions of multiple transport partners, fund staff to oversee the development of gardens, run education programmes and buy the necessary materials and equipment for local people to build greener s

paces. Going forward, revenue from the sale of community-owned solar PV energy will support all our gardens and community projects.
