*Incredible Wigan to launch later this year*

On Tuesday 28th June, the Incredible Edible team will be in Believe Square (The Wiend) to demonstrate their skills and help volunteers plant fruit, veg and herbs.

Incredible Edible makes local food accessible to all with volunteers encouraged to plant it in communal areas such as grass verges, gardens, parks and schools and colleges.

Founder Pamela Warhurst launched the scheme eight years ago in Todmorden and is delighted to be growing Incredible Wigan.

Pam, who is originally from Leigh, said: “It’s a really simple initiative ... about growing food and supporting local food businesses, tasting local produce and helping people to use food to be happy and healthy."
