The Grassroots Oldham Women enterprise (GROWE) have taken over an Oldham Council-owned Grassroots site in Failsworth, after it became vacant.
The initiative involves keeping the existing community food growing space and protecting an established orchard so the site can continue to be a real community asset.
The project was launched last year during Great Big Green Week - a UK celebration of community action to tackle climate change and protect nature.
GROWE is a partnership between Northern Lily Community Interest Company, which specialises in horticulture, and charity Support Action for Women Network (SAWN) who support the welfare of black and African women.
The community space is one of many local initiaves helping to grow food, live sustainably and tackle climate change.
