Garden Grow & Swap
We’re getting ready to launch Garden Grow & Swap, a brand-new project that will support 20 local families to transform their outdoor spaces into thriving food-growing gardens.
Funded by The National Lottery Community Fund


Too many people in Blackpool tell us they’d love to grow their own fruit and veg but feel held back by overgrown gardens, lack of tools, health issues, or not knowing where to start. We want to change that.
With the help of our team, families will receive:
-
Garden makeovers, clearing and setting up spaces ready for growing
-
Raised beds or Planters for easy, accessible growing
-
Starter kits, compost and seeds, everything you need to get going
-
Step-by-step support, monthly visits and a Facebook group with live demos
-
Workshops & skills sharing, learn how to grow, harvest, and even save seeds for the future
-
A harvest celebration, come together at the end of the season to share food and stories
This is a multi-generational project, grandparents, parents, and children will be working side by side, learning skills for life, eating better, saving money, and reconnecting with nature right on their doorstep.
We’ll be opening up applications soon, but for now you can register your interest and be the first to hear when the project goes live.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Would absolutely recommend NurtureFY for their professional and kind response and actually turning up to do what was required.
It is so nice to be able to do something for myself for a few hours. This activity was fantastic!
I enjoyed it so much thank you so much for having me I look forward to another workshop
