A community garden project in Helston is not only providing a communal space for residents to plant and harvest their own food, but also helping people to learn new skills to help take them further in life. The Incredible Edible Helston project at Coronation Park was started by the Helston Climate Action Group as a way of providing the community with a space in which they could grow their own food, promote biodiversity and reduce carbon emissions.
The community garden is a collaboration between Helston Climate Action Group, Rebuild South West and InsideOut. However, after being pretty much finished off today (Friday 23) with the partnership of InsideOut and Rebuild South West, it has become much more than a place for people to grow their own food.
