Growing Food in Harehills & Chapeltown - Salvage Day Saturday 12 & 19 June 2010

Following the recent 'Growing Food in Harehills and Chapeltown' exhibition, organisers of the Back to Front project are asking you to donate unwanted materials so that can progress onto the next stage. Once materials have been gathered, three demonstration gardens will be built to showcase the potential of urban gardens in and around Harehills and Chapeltown.  

Please help by donating any of the following materials:-

window boxes, plastic supermarket boxes, perspex rigid sheets, timber wine or champagne boxes, wood stain, rolls of galvanised steel wire 3mm width, black damp-proof course sheeting, 500 reclaimed red bricks, 10 bags of decorative stone, mini greenhouse (4 tier) and lean-to greenhouse - 4ft x 2ft with polycarbonate glazing.

They are also asking for the donation of plants, fruits, vegetables, herbs, salads and flowering plants.

This is a great opportunity to encourage greater domestic food growth in front gardens.
