生活成本愈來愈貴，想食多啲新鮮蔬菜，又想減輕日常買餸嘅開支？不如試下自己種自己食！

 

「紐卡素共同耕種計劃」希望為大家提供一個簡單而負擔得起嘅方法，親手種植自己嘅食物。無論你有冇種植經驗，都可以由一個種植床開始，種植自己鍾意食嘅蔬菜、香草及水果。

​

🌱 你嘅種植床

每位參加者可以使用一個 122cm × 122cm × 18cm 種植床，自由種植自己喜愛嘅蔬菜、香草、水果或其他合適植物。

種植位置夏季日照充足，非常適合種植荷蘭豆、青瓜、南瓜、士多啤梨、茴香、番茄、洋蔥、蒜頭、薄荷、薯仔等等。

自己種植食物，可以享受新鮮收成，亦更加清楚自己食嘅食物係點樣種出嚟。善用一個小小嘅種植床，亦可以幫助減少部分日常購買蔬果嘅開支。

 

🌳 唔止種嘢 — 免費享用 Community Garden

參加者除咗可以使用自己嘅種植床之外，亦可以免費使用 NEHK Community Garden。

你可以預約花園作休閒或私人活動用途，例如 BBQ、朋友聚會、家庭聚會及小型私人活動等等。一邊種自己嘅食物，一邊亦可以享受戶外綠色空間。

Community Garden 使用須視乎場地供應情況、預約政策及相關場地規則。

With the rising cost of living and food prices putting pressure on household budgets, growing some of your own food can be a rewarding way to enjoy fresh produce while helping to reduce some of your grocery costs.

The Newcastle Community Growing Scheme – Phase 2 provides an affordable and accessible opportunity to grow your own food. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced grower, you can start with your own growing bed and enjoy growing food for yourself.

​

🌱 Your Own Growing Bed

Each participant can use a 122cm × 122cm × 18cm growing bed for vegetables, herbs, fruit or other suitable plants.

The site receives plenty of sunshine during the summer and is particularly suitable for growing mangetout, cucumbers, pumpkins, strawberries, fennel, tomatoes, onions, garlic, mint, potatoes and much more.

Growing your own gives you freshly harvested food and a better understanding of how your food is produced. Making good use of even a small growing bed can also help offset some of the cost of buying fresh vegetables and herbs.

​

🌳 More Than Just a Growing Bed

Participants can also use the NEHK Community Garden free of charge.

The garden can be booked for leisure and private activities, including BBQs, gatherings with friends, family get-togethers and small private events. It gives you the opportunity not only to grow food, but also to enjoy an outdoor green space with family and friends.

Use of the Community Garden is subject to availability, the booking policy and applicable garden rules.

​

💚 Participation Fees

NEHK Members: First growing bed FREE; each additional growing bed £5 per year.

Non-members: First growing bed £16 per year; each additional growing bed £8 per year.

​

💧 Maintaining Your Growing Bed

During the summer, participants are expected to visit at least once every three weeks to maintain their growing bed, including weeding, watering and general upkeep.

If you're busy, away or simply don't have time to weed and water your growing bed, we can help for just £2 per month.

​

Compost and seeds must be purchased separately. All participants must also follow the garden rules and Community Growing Scheme guidelines.
