Growing Communities is an award-winning social enterprise based in Hackney. We run a weekly organic fruit and veg scheme, the Growing Communities’ farmers' market and several urban market gardens.

We are currently recruiting four urban trainee growers.

These traineeships are aimed at people who want to develop their food growing skills. Trainees will work alongside the Grower, learning all aspects of running our Urban Market Gardens. The traineeship involves one day and one early evening a week. In addition there will be monthly evening tutorials. The traineeship lasts for six months, from the start of April until the end of September.
