We promote wellbeing and sustainability through grow your own food projects, creative workshops and events
our story
Everything we do supports the goal of sustainable development. Meeting today’s needs without limiting the ability of future generations to meet theirs. Hundreds of years of industrial history including shipping, timber and fishing, left our little piece of Hull derelict and without purpose. The fallout from the ending of such a vibrant industrial city stretches far and wide across time, so much so, that many of us still find ourselves struggling to make ends meet, from one month to the next in these modern times.
SOCIAL
enterprise
At Rooted in Hull, we pride ourselves on being a part of our community. We are made up of our community, being one and the same as the people that use our services. We know that our community sees itself represented within our staff and our volunteers and this promotes a real sense that we are helping ourselves.
URBAN
farm projects
Our vision for Rooted in Hull was to create a safe space in the heart of the city, that allowed people to come together and connect. We have successfully created a farm where a farm has no real right to exist.
beekeeping
As an established urban farm at the heart of Hull city we took the decision to start keeping bees with the view to producing our very own honey.

We try to do as many creative events as we possibly can, because that’s when the Rooted in Hull community swells with people and creativity.
