Our 2020 vision for a healthIER wealthIER Rossendale
Christine Walkden - IER Patron
"I am happy and very keen to support the project as I believe there is nothing better than growing your own, being outside getting lots of exercise and being involved in a community. This scheme involves all these elements, and I wish everyone involved all the very best and great success."

Our Mission Statement
Incredible Edible Rossendale have a 2020 vision for self sufficiency in the towns of the Rossendale Valley.
We aim to encourage residents to grow their own produce either on their own land, or, on community land tended by IER volunteers.
We aim to educate everyone on the benefits of eating fresh food, and, introduce them to foods previously alien to them.
We aim to offer locally produced foods through our shops thereby increasing business potential, and, supporting local trade.

A Message from Graham Jones MP
Self sufficiency is a great attribute and to have it at a local level will open up a vast array of opportunity in the community and amongst other things will be a welcome boost to our local economy.
The project aims at getting the community involved in working together to grow its own produce but also works to raise awareness of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. I welcome the project which will do a great deal in supporting our local trade with good quality healthy food not only being produced in the community but staying in the community.
The Incredible Edible Rossendale project website has lots of ways in which you can get involved. It boasts a forum where local people can come together and share ideas along with listings of upcoming events in the local community.
Let’s get planting!”
Graham Jones, MP - August 2010
