Tid: As a Champion you’ll need up to 4 hours per week to start and maintain your GIY Group.

Given the current restrictions that are in place around Covid-19, we encourage you to start by growing some food at home, growing it forward by sharing seeds or seedlings with neighbors and family members and using this time at home to plan for a community garden or community food growing project that can kick off properly when restrictions allow.
