About Munday Growers
Munday Growers is a not-for-profit community-interest market garden being developed on a four-acre site on the outskirts of Marlow.
The project
Our aim is to grow seasonal vegetables, fruit, herbs and flowers using no-dig, regenerative methods without synthetic pesticides, herbicides or artificial fertilisers.
The productive areas will sit within a wider landscape designed to support biodiversity, including orchard trees, chalk wildflower grassland, rough meadow and other habitat areas.
As the project develops, we intend to supply local people through community-supported agriculture and markets, as well as local restaurants and independent retailers.
The site
The site has a gentle south-facing slope, water supply, vehicle access and hard standing. Our plans include outdoor vegetable growing, flowers, orchard and food-forest planting, wildflower grassland and polytunnels.
The intention is to create a working market garden that is productive and commercially credible while also being a place where nature can thrive.
