Fallin Community Voice is establishing its own community garden space for our local residents. A place for people to grow, socialise, volunteer and be part of our wonderful community. Working in collaboration with local & national partners, we are developing a community garden which will consist of a resilient, regenerative permaculture garden and edible forest that thrives in our increasingly unpredictable climate to provide food for us and habitats for nature. It will improve local biodiversity, create new green jobs and up-skill residents in the fields of climate action, nature restoration, food security and community resilience. Our project will bring people together and create a new, better quality, wheelchair accessible natural space, regenerating a natural environment that has been replaced by ex-mining derelict land. This space will include a core central food production hub and an educational area, with a range of activities and programmes designed in partnership with residents and other stakeholders, raising awareness of “nature and climate” issues and inspiring opportunities to address other climate and nature friendly priorities in and around the community.
