High Riggs

WE ARE CURRENTLY ONLY TAKING NEW CUSTOMERS WHO CAN COLLECT FROM OUR SITE.

Freeman Bio-dynamic Garden was established in April 2014 at High Riggs in Stannington, Sheffield. The 9 acre site consists of a 3 acre market garden, a 3 acre mixed woodland and a 3 acre meadow. It has been set up as a social enterprise to provide learning opportunities for Freeman College students and fresh vegetables for the Freeman College kitchens, the Fusion Cafe, the Sheffield community and for our vegetable box scheme.

As well as learning to grow vegetables, fruits, herbs and flowers, students learn animal care, green woodwork, blacksmithing and cook using the clay oven. We also have space for the development of other land based workshops.

Our aim is to enable the students to reimagine their potential through experiencing meaningful relationships with the soil, plants, animals and people. By buying our vegetables you contribute to this striving.

To guarantee year round veg box deliveries, we have to top up our own produce with produce from trusted suppliers who use organic and biodynamic growing methods.
