Our Events Page features upcoming events, workshops and courses across all of our projects and you can sign up to volunteer at any of the projects via our Volunteer Page.

Platt Fields Market Garden is the home of MUD! It was our first garden and is currently our largest. We have a dedicated page for PFMG with more information that your can access here.

The Landing is our first roof top growing project in collaboration with Where The Light Gets In (WTLGI). We have volunteering sessions available here that you can sign up for via our Volunteer Page. For more information about The Landing, or to book places on workshops, please visit the WTLGI website here.

Ridgeway Street Community Garden is our collaboration with The Church of The Apostles Miles Platting and Buzz Manchester Health and Wellbeing Service. The garden had fallen into a state of disrepair and we currently provide weekly volunteer wellbeing sessions to work on the garden. You can sign up to volunteer with us via our Volunteer Page.

MUD have been gleaning for a number of years and now help coordinate The North West Gleaning Network. Find out more about gleaning on our dedicated Gleaning Page and sign up to go on a glean via our Volunteer Page.

Mona Street Community Garden is based in Salford, a 5 minute walk from Salford precinct. The garden was transformed from a former car park several years ago. MUD are now working with the Salford Health Improvement Team to renovate & redesign the space to improve the space for the benefit of the whole community. 

We are collaborating with local organisations such as MOUP, For The Love Of Food, Salford Council & NHS to create a space for workshops, learning, charitable events, fun days, feasts and seasonal events.

If you would like to get involved with the development of Mona Street and learn some valuable skills please sign up to volunteer with us on our Volunteer Page.

The Pankhurst Plot aims to be another sustainably funded project with MUD in collaboration with the Friends of Chorlton Park Group & Emmeline’s Pantry. A vibrant and versatile food growing community garden, incorporating a woodland walk, wild play area and mud kitchen. 

The food grown will either be donated to the pantry or utilised within another zero food waste project. The garden will be maintained by volunteers and managed by ourselves. The function of the garden will evolve naturally over time with it’s direction being decided through community partners input.
