The Faringdon Allotments Society is holding an ECOGROW Open Day on the 16th June. Come and see how it’s done - how it benefits your health and the environment!
Amazingly, there are sixteen organic ECOFARMS within just two miles of Faringdon that have either soil-association certification, or farm using organic methods.
Many will be organising activities during ECOWEEK, and some are also on the ECOBIKES route.
