That&#8217;s exactly the kind of thing a brilliant new series of free workshops is setting out to explore this spring, and we wanted to make sure it&#8217;s on your radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;Entangled&#8221; Where Food Growing Meets Nature Recovery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Entangled<\/strong> is a series of four free workshops running across Hull and East Riding from late April through to the end of May. Led by Claire Gribben,  a teaching fellow in Sustainable Cities and Food Systems and PhD researcher at the University of Leeds, these sessions dig into the fascinating relationship between urban food growing and nature recovery. If you&#8217;ve ever wondered whether your veg patch is doing more for local biodiversity than you realise, this is your kind of event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Claire is no stranger to our patch, either. She&#8217;s a former coordinator of Hull and East Riding Friends of the Earth and has spent years researching urban agriculture and its links to the natural world. So expect proper, grounded knowledge, not just theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each workshop runs for about four hours and includes a shared lunch, which sounds like a lovely way to meet like-minded people in your area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Dates and Venues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Friday 24th April, 11am\u20133pm<\/strong> Learning Resources Centre, Eppleworth Road, Cottingham, HU16 5YF (at Worklink Cottingham)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Friday 1st May, 11am\u20133pm<\/strong> Bowling Pavilion, Pearson Park, Hull, HU5 2SY<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monday 18th May, 12:30pm\u20134:30pm<\/strong> TimeBank Hull &amp; East Riding, 24 Swanfield Road, Hull, HU9 4PX (at Marfleet Community Centre)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saturday 30th May, 11am\u20133pm<\/strong> Beverley Minster Parish Hall, 38 Highgate, Beverley, HU17 0DN<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We talk a lot on this blog about supporting local wildlife, hedgehog highways, pollinator-friendly planting, leaving the wild edges alone. But the conversation about how our food-growing spaces fit into the bigger picture of nature recovery is one that doesn&#8217;t get enough attention. These workshops look like a great chance to think about that connection in a really hands-on, community-focused way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All four events are completely free, but you&#8217;ll want to grab a ticket through Eventbrite to secure your place. You can find all the details and book at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/entangled-hull-and-east-riding-4811457\">Entangled \u2014 Hull and East Riding on Eventbrite<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re not involved in organising these events \u2014 we just think they&#8217;re well worth shouting about.
