Overview

Community food growing offers an opportunity for communities to come together and create a project that provides fresh local produce to individuals and/or the community.  It can also provide an opportunity to improve your physical and mental wellbeing as well as a place to meet other members of the community.

The Pitlochry and Moulin community has approached the council with an interest in creating a new community food growing area. Before we go further we need to consult the wider community so all opinions are understood.

The survey can be saved at any time and completed at a later date but must be submitted by the 3rd of November 2024.

Paper copies of the survey area also available at the Atholl Centre and Library.

Growing together

Why your views matter

This is YOUR food growing project and it's YOUR views that matter.  We want to hear all of your ideas about starting up a new growing area in the Pitlochry and Moulin area.  Do you want individual plots or shared areas?  Do you want communal areas, raised beds, sheds or a common room?  Will there be parking space, disabled access, cycle shelters?

Members of the community and we at the council would like to understand the level of demand for a community growing area, what type of growing space is required and if any land is currently of interest. This is your chance to have your say early on and help begin to shape the sort of food growing space that suits YOUR needs.
