Human Roots is a non-profit, community allotment which aims to educate, enrich and empower the community of Stansted Mountfitchet and surrounding areas. This means accessing various members of the community and bringing them together in a tranquil environment to teach them about health and well-being, gardening and food.
We have two primary purposes. The first is to educate the local community about gardening and growing healthy food products. This includes providing information on cooking and preparing meals from home-grown produce. The second is to bring the local community together, forge new and lasting friendships and help community members overcome social isolation and loneliness.
So our core objective is to promote social inclusion, a healthy lifestyle and general well-being through outdoor sensory experiences and to provide accessible grounds to facilitate a platform for learning.
