A Leeds couple who transformed a forgotten piece of land into a thriving community garden are inviting volunteers to support the project.
Over the past five years residents Linda and John Otley have created Seacroft Forest Garden, which Linda calls “a little piece of nature in a sprawling council estate”. Now the group are asking more members of the community to help maintain the garden, which donates most of the fruit and vegetables they grow to the local food pantry and a local foodbank.
” Produce on the garden includes rhubarb, blueberries, jostaberries, goji berries, pumpkins, carrots, courgettes, lettuce, potatoes, and herbs such as sage and basil. “We’ve also started planting a good old staple of the Yorkshire diet: liquorice,” says John. “When we had a group of children up here they were surprised that it came out of a plant because as far as they knew it came out of a bag with other sweets.
