Glebelands is a pioneering urban growing project on the banks of the Mersey in Sale, producing organic food for consumption within Greater Manchester 

Glebelands City Growers provides a working example of sustainable food production in an urban environment. Our mission is to challenge perceptions about how food is produced and inspire people towards positive change. We supply delicious healthy fresh vegetables to the local community at affordable prices. We aim to increase awareness and understanding of truly sustainable food production through our education programme and by providing training and volunteer opportunities.
