We Are Grow

We at GROW harness the power of food and farming to transform local communities. Our agroecological farm and outdoor learning hub at The Totteridge Academy in North London is at the heart of all our activities, providing a practical and inspiring resource for everyone who visits. We grow vegetables, flowers, and herbs, keep bees and a small flock of chickens, and supply our partner school's canteen with fresh produce. We also welcome volunteers and visitors of all ages and backgrounds through our volunteering programme and community events. Our programmes primarily focus on working with local children, young people, and families who experience barriers to learning, healthy living, and employment. We run early support programmes, AQA courses, holiday, after-school & weekend clubs, curriculum projects, school trips, and training programmes. Through direct experience of the farm and nature, we offer our participants the skills, knowledge, and confidence to make positive choices and changes in their lives and in the world around them.

We believe that connecting with food and how it is grown has the power to change lives and promote food justice and the right to a sustainable way of life for all. Through our partnership with TTA, we are creating a model for how schools & farms can work together to create resilient local food systems, enhance learning and well-being, reach meaningful sustainability goals, and strengthen the community. Our activities and services aim to empower individuals and families to make positive choices and changes in their lives and in the world around them, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable and just society.
