Welcome to Bath Area Growers. We are a network of community projects growing regeneratively for food, community, and nature.
Local Growing Groups
Community Gardens and Allotments
Great places to meet new people, learn from others, share tasks, enjoy beautiful surroundings and delicious food.
Market Gardens
Learn from experienced professional growers whilst supporting their business thrive. All farms here sell their organic vegetables and fruit to the public.
Supported Gardening
Therapeutic gardening projects offer extra support to people to enjoy all the benefits of growing: nurturing the land and themselves.
Surplus Projects
Collecting and delivering surplus fruit and veg from allotments, farm and gardens, and getting it to people who may most benefit.
Wildlife Projects
These projects have a particular emphasis on growing for biodiversity and nature regeneration in and around the city.
We are mapping and promoting organic community-focussed growing so it’s easier to grow, glean or buy locally-grown nutritious fruit and veg.
