Incredible Edible Ulverston

We have discussed this project with our community group members and we are going to be the first town in Cumbria to take part in the Incredible Edible food movement!! We have considerable interest from different groups in the town and will be having a public meeting on February 26th at 6pm in the Town Hall to begin to involve people in Community, Learning and Business Opportunities around growing and producing food....as the Chair of the original group In Todmorden said "If you eat, you're in!"
