“We never planned it to be this big! We just wanted to grow some cabbages and bring some children down to do some bushcraft and bring the community together..."
It started with just four volunteers from a tiny Transition group and an idea to take over a disused, publicly owned farm for the community.
Now Greenslate Farm is home to a care farm, drug and alcohol recovery service, dozens of rescued animals, a strawbale cafe, farm shop, forest schools, nature rangers, a community project incubator and so much more...
We cannot wait to see it for ourselves - and you can too - at our North West Regional gathering 10-11 June. Transitioners and everyone working for community-led change in the North West welcome! Book now: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/625220470257

Wonderful Chester-based singer. She has such a beautiful voice.

This is so incredibly sad. I wish the police wouldn’t make these ‘no evidence it’s a hate crime’ type statements as at this stage they simply can’t know. I’m not even clear what evidence they would expect to find.
But a 16 year old has lost her life. A girl - person - has died, savagely murdered. It hurts too to see how happy, but vulnerable, Brianna looks in the photo.

We've been here for several weeks.
Many accounts in the fields that interest us, including #Degrowth #Environment #Climate #SocialJustice
But few indeed from our neck of the planet, #GreaterManchester, #Manchester and #NorthWestEngland.
Matter of time we suppose.
