Volunteer days are every Thursday!
Redruth’s only CSA (community supported agriculture) farm, needs your help! We are entering into our 3rd season of growing veggies for local households, by hand, with love. On top of feeding our members and volunteers, we have donated over £1500 worth of veg to food banks so far (we lost count after that) and would love to grow more for our community and those experiencing food poverty.
Whether you are new to or curious about growing, have the greenest of fingers, or just want to get involved in something that’s good for community, the planet, and your wellbeing, then please join us! We are running volunteer days every Thursday. Come anytime from 10am til 4pm. We have coffee breaks and veggie stew for lunch. Sometimes Jayne brings a cake 🙂
Grassroots garden CIC at it’s essence is a start-up CSA farm, and permaculture project growing ‘beyond-organically’ on the edge of Redruth.

We would love to collaborate with local people, to co-create this space and do our bit for the planet and each other as we increase food security and resilience.
We enjoy a friendly vibe while we work with our hands, the soil and each other, and there are jobs/projects to suit all abilities. Our polytunnel has comfy chairs and tables to work and eat at when the weather is rough. We would love your help to kickstart the growing season! Help with planting new seedlings, clearing weeds, prepping this year’s beds, making new veg beds, fruit tree grafting, weeding, watering, tying tomatoes and many other things before the harvesting begins. If you’re arty, perhaps you could help write some signs? Practical? Help us build something! There are lots of projects we plan to get going, so the more, the merrier.
If you are interested in knowing more or helping in any way whatsoever, please give Dan a call or send me a message on 07916444709. If you can help on a different day, please let us know! We would love to hear from you.
We are here: https://goo.gl/maps/kaRLchhtp7FpdWnn8 We have space for some cars to park, and can use the “Wheal Peevor” carpark if needed. Head towards “Globe Vale Holiday Park”, and turn left down the “Wheal Peevor / Windy Ridge” track. We are just on the right, open on Thursdays.
