A grow your own food campaign has been backed as prices soar amid the cost of living crisis.
Councillors voted unanimously in favour of a motion calling for small plots of land to be made available for community food growing at a Shropshire Council meeting.
“This initiative seeks to help Shropshire neighbourhoods become more sustainable and increase resilience by making it easier for community groups to grow more food for local people on underused, or unused, public land, on plots as small as four to five sq m. Even contaminated land could be used for composting or bee-keeping.
"The Shropshire Good Food Partnership is set up to support communities across the county to access the skills and resources they need to get started and sustain community growing activities. However, more small lots are needed to take this excellent initiative forward and get more fresh food to more Shropshire people.
