Didsbury Greening and Growing Group
Didsbury Greening and Growing Group is an initiative started and with the support of Didsbury Civic Society.
It aims to make a practical and tangible difference to our local landscape. One of its plans is to grow more local food, with more allotments and orchards. In April 2011 it began work on a new community orchard in Didsbury – establishing 40 native fruit trees, plus blackberries and raspberries to be enjoyed by anyone!
Plus there are tremendous plans to construct a water turbine at Northenden Weir which will generate enough electricity for more than 50 homes.
For more information or to get involved in these projects, or to suggest others which interest you, contact John or Judy by email.
