Gateshead’s National Garden Festival in 1990 - a bid to regenerate areas of industrial wasteland alongside the River Tyne - gave birth to an annual Flower Show. Theres also the local Allotment show later in the summer in Saltwell Park. Here’s some produce pics from last year....
There’s a great charity called the Comfrey Project which works with refugees and asylum seekers on allotment sites across Newcastle and Gateshead with the aim of improving their conditions of life and general wellbeing.... I did a couple of workshops with them and visited their allotment site a few times last year...
