Grow and thrive together as a community

Crowdfunder is working with UK charity Social Farms & Gardens to help community gardens, city farms, care farms and other community green spaces get back on their feet after what’s been an extremely difficult two years. Let’s support communities to farm, garden and grow together in 2023 and beyond. Donate to a community garden or farm Crowdfunder today.

What could community gardens and farms crowdfund for?

  • Make up for lost cash flow due to the coronavirus pandemic
  • Upgrade or pay for new tools, structures or animal enclosures
  • Create a haven for nature, start a rewilding project, plant trees, create insect hotels and bird boxes, or even build a pond
  • Start a new project like a community vegetable patch or veg box scheme
  • Run free sessions for disadvantaged groups
  • Create an outdoor classroom or kitchen to train volunteers, run workshops for members of the community and deliver your outreach programmes

Success Stories:
Organic Blooms

Organic Blooms successfully raised £32,963 from 268 amazing supporters in 33 days, in order to purchase more growing space for their cut-flower farm.

Every flower they grow and every stem they sell helps them to train someone who has struggled to find work because of a learning difficulty, autistic spectrum disorder or long term mental health condition.
