Another Incredible Edible School!

Some great pictures showing the children (and helpers) and Waterfoot Primary School:…

I've found a really good website which collates stories which are 'tweeted' on Twitter by anyone that is connected to Incredible Edible Rossendale.

It then puts them into a newspaper type page and issues it for all to see.

If you follow us on Twitter ( @IERossendale ) then you may well have seen it already.  If not, then you can have a look here:…

Our friends from Burnley were featured in the local newspapers last week.

Well done Rob, keep up the Incredible work!…

Another beautiful day!!  I'm just off to collect 100 edible saplings from Stubbylee in Bacup, given to IER by The Woodland Trust .  We'll be planting them in Helmshore tomorrow with a group of pupils from Helmshore County Primary School.

The school is…

Incredible Edible Rossendale, would like to invite you to participate in   Incredible Edible at Work.

The idea is very, very simple. Workplaces in the Valley simply grow something(s) edible on any of their land – a fruit tree, berries, salads crops, the list is endless. There is no excuse for not growing anything – if you don’t have any land, you certainly have windowsills where you can grow lettuce, rocket, or herbs. You can grow tomatoes…

We will be guests on Radio Lancashire this afternoon.

Stephen Lowe has asked us on to talk about our project and the opening of Whitaker Park - please listen between 12:45 and 2pm.

If anyone would like to contribute it’s fairly simple - just send us material that respond to any of the following questions:…

Representatives from IERoss were recently invited 'over the hill' for a guided tour of the superb project by our mentors in Todmorden.

Our guide for the day, the wonderful Estelle, walked us from Mary's garden, along the canal bank and back through Todmorden for a well-earned rest at the Bear Cafe.

The Sun shone on us all afternoon, and, a great Good Friday was had by all.

BIG thanks to Estelle, Pam and Jane for their…
