Food Factory

Since 2007 we have been keeping an allotment in Wythenshawe, Manchester.

Originally set up as part of Wythenshawe Forever! The Project is a collaboration between Ultimate Holding Company and pupils at Saint Paul’s Catholic High School.

The Project aims to raise awareness of health and food sustainability in the community. So far we’ve held workdays, build a shed, raised beds and a pond. It is hoped that Food Factory will host artist lead community events about growing, preparing and packaging food.

With Food Factory now entering its third growing season, we are keen to involve even more participants. If you can spare time to help us with basic upkeep and cultivation, do contact us via our administrator (details under 'co-op/contact' in the sidebar menu).
