The Grown in Dagenham project at Dagenham Farm started in January 2016 and ended in December 2018. The project built on the community outreach work we had done since the farm opened in 2012 and enabled us to work with local lone parents, residents, young people and students. Hundreds of local residents and young people benefited from learning how to grow food and cook food with others. The Big Lottery's Reaching Communities Fund funded the project.
