Overview
The Scottish Government introduced the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015 to give communities the democratic choice to be involved in the decision-making process about their local services.
Over recent years the popularity of growing our own food has increased.
Many people are attracted by the health benefits associated with growing your own fruit and vegetables and potential reductions in food bills from locally grown produce. It also has a positive impact on their carbon footprint by reducing the distance their food has to travel.
