Blakeney Hill Growers is a group of like-minded people seeking a healthier, more organic lifestyle that revolves around our neighbourhood, Blakeney Hill in the Forest of Dean.

The small-holding includes an orchard, herb garden, wild flower meadow, a fruit cage, a vegetable plot and a poly tunnel.

The level of of your involvement will be completely up to you. You might want to work on the land or share the milking and cleaning out of the goats. You may want to help care for the chickens or bees. Training and instruction will be given in all aspects.

To help us cover costs and become sustainable we need to charge a basic annual membership fee of £6. In addition there is a contribution in proportion to the level of your involvement. This can be paid annually or monthly.

We run a range of community events and activities – including making preserves
