TOGETHER WE GROW
WE AIM TO GIVE AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE THE OPPORTUNITY, TOOLS AND SUPPORTS NEEDED TO GET THEM GROWING.
We work with people of all ages and backgrounds across Ireland, UK and worldwide.
AT SCHOOL
At GIY, we know how important it is to learn about food empathy and growing as young as possible.
Our goal is to inspire a passion for championing homegrown fruit and vegetables because the more local and sustainable our food is, the better it is for our communities, our health, and our planet. By developing practical skills, students gain confidence to make a positive impact on their communities and the environment.

AT HOME
The home is at the centre of both the family and the community and we believe that by unlocking the potential of small growing spaces and harnessing community connections we can transform the health of both people and the planet.
Our programmes are designed to educate, inspire and empower homes to grow, share and understand how their local action can deliver global impact.

IN THE COMMUNITY
Our mission is to cultivate sustainable, food-growing communities through place-based programs that connect homes, schools, workplaces, and local spaces such as libraries.
Growing plays an important role in supporting social cohesion in our cities, towns, villages, as 42% of people report increased feeling of increasing social capital by bringing people together..
