Lucy Gray on local produce available every Wednesday at The Totteridge Academy

GROW is a thriving agroecological farm that enriches the lives of The Totteridge Academy and local Barnet community, prioritising those facing barriers to education, well-being, and employment.

Our mission is to champion food justice and advocate for a sustainable way of life for all.

Our farm stall runs every Wednesday 3pm-5pm in The Totteridge Academy car park on Barnet Lane.

Here you can pick up the best of our seasonal produce, flowers, pickles, preserves, merch, and more! This summer, you can expect to see (subject to availability) melons, cucumbers, tomatoes, courgettes, chillies and much more!

We operate a solidarity pricing system that helps us to make produce available for all.

Our produce is grown in collaboration with our community. We grow without the use of harmful chemicals or pesticides and adopt agroeocological farming methods that are good for soil, plants, people, and wildlife.

We hope to see you soon!
