Barking Food Forest
About us
Barking Food Forest is a new community gardening project in Barking Riverside that will benefit local children, young people, families and wider residents of all ages.
The Barking Food Forest will be next to the Riverside Campus. It is a great location that boasts part of the nearby Thames Estuary, in which Brackish water species live. It will also provide a much needed community green space, which is lacking in Thames Ward due to being cut off by the A13.
Our aim
Being involved in this programme would give young people and the wider community a better understanding of the levels of air pollution in their community and more importantly we hope to be able to empower local people to be able to take action to mitigate this."
