Our theme for 2024 – Water

Each year, Grow With It focuses on a different theme. In 2024, we’re looking at water. How to save water, how we access water and most importantly, the impact of this on the planet. Throughout the year, we’ll ask you to share how you’re doing so we have an idea of how watering works across communities.

By taking part, you’ll have the chance to join us for our seed sowing event, the Big Seed Sow in spring and our seed saving campaign, the Big Seed Save in autumn. Our online resources will provide advice around saving water, and access to fun activities through the year, delivered straight to your inbox.
