Allotment Grower, Rosanna Morris: Organic Heroes

As a mother, Rosanna Morris feels that it's really important to understand more about her family’s food is grown.

Rosanna started her allotment because wants to show her children where their food comes from - she’s started a quiet campaign on her allotment to try and encourage everyone who grows food there to go pesticide and chemical-free...

Together with a group of passionate people, Rosanna has been utilising the power of community to campaign for greener growing spaces that work for nature and wildlife too.

She uses her skills as an artist and printmaker to make wooden signs for the allotment, that help to start conversations and spur on people in neighbouring plots to resist and say no to pesticides.

 

As part of their Organic Heroes campaign, the Soil Association and Pukka Herbs are proud to celebrate heroes like Rosanna who are encouraging those around them to make a change and working hard to connect their loved ones with where their fruit, vegetables and herbs are coming from.
