Home Grown

As part of Edible Estate’s response to the Covid 19 lockdown, we are working with our partner organisations to put together a ‘Home Grown’ initiative to support householders to grow food in their own homes and gardens.  April/May is a great time of the year to start growing food.

Home Grown will provide a starter pack of seeds, compost and other items to set folk up, a series of instructional videos each week, and through Facebook Groups we will provide answers to questions and an opportunity to share news and photos about your own growing efforts with other growers in your neighbourhood.

We have raised funds to provide households living in the neighbourhoods above with a free Home Grown starter pack.   If you live outside the neighbourhoods listed, you may still receive a Starter Pack, but we would appreciate if you could donate to the costs if you could.  To find out more and to apply for a starter pack follow the links in the sidebar.

Donations

We welcome donations towards the delivery of Home Grown. Please give what you can. This will support us to reach more households across Edinburgh.

Enter the amount you want to donate and press the Submit button. You will be redirected to the Paypal site to complete the donation.
