From August to October, we held 9 wonderful Urban Farm produce sales at Northern Roots.

We threw open our gates & welcomed local people into our Urban Farm, where they met the team, learnt about Northern Roots & saw exactly where their produce is grown.

Community is at the heart of the Northern Roots project & our Urban Farm produce sales have been a great chance to connect with local people, while providing access to fresh, healthy produce.

We’ll have 2 sales this month, on Fri 6th & 20th Oct, 1-3pm.

Oldham Hour #Oldham

Visit the Urban Farm on Fri 6th Oct, 1-3pm. Meet the team, explore the poly tunnels & grab yourself some freshly picked vegetables & herbs. #Oldham

Cash or card accepted & free parking. We hope to see you there!
