Agenda item

To consider a project helping younger people in particular, and schools, get involved more in growing, understanding, and eating healthy, local foods and the use of Council allotment sites.

The Committee considered details of a project to helping younger people in particular, and schools, get involved more in growing, understanding, and eating healthy, local foods as outlined by Mr Jessel under public participation.

Members expressed their support in principle for the initiative and welcomed the ambition to work with schools and encourage careers in horticulture. The Committee emphasised that as landowner of the allotments they did not have any direct input but could support the project by promoting on social media and through the Town Council generally.

Resolved:

That, the details of the project be noted, and the Town Council support it in principle.
