Barnet Garden Project provides chemical-free veg and a hand up

Allotment_pictures_and_north_england_039_1

Barnet Garden Project is now harvesting! Club members are eligible for a box containing large variety of high-quality chemical-free produce, including huge, mild onions, and high quality salad potatoes. Those who work at the Barnet Project are adults with disabilities who, through this, can supplement their stipends without having their benefits affected. They can also gain valuable work experience that enables them to go on to other endeavors (though many choose to stay on with the garden). The garden is primarily irrigated with a drip system and rainwater, and fertilized primarily with compost. [GT]
