Platt Fields Market Garden
Platt Fields Market Garden is a muddy bit of the good life in urban Manchester. It’s a fantastic community growing project, ran by Manchester Urban Diggers (MUD). You can taste the fruit (and veg) of their labours in the café and you can also buy fresh produce from their stall.
It’s a great place for kids. The café is surrounded by the market gardens so the link between what you eat and where it comes from is easy to see.
As well as volunteering opportunities, there are plenty of events to get involved with. Don’t miss the Monthly Farmer’s Markets which are on the first Sunday of each month. If you can’t get down there, you can also order Christmas veg boxes to pick up.
Open: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun
