May Garden Project
Ian Solomon-Kawall
In 2007, Ian turned his mother’s back garden into a food growing space and invited everybody and anybody in. Now ten years later, May Project Garden’s is a thriving community of food growers, musicians, activists and more. Together they demonstrate how ‘clean air’ is a social issue with local, personal solutions. We hear how they’ve propagated nature supporting behaviours in an urban setting; from sowing seeds with inner-city school children to using hip-hop as a means to spread ideas.
