VYSE STREET SUSTAINABLE URBAN FARM
Vyse Street Food Market is a pilot project set to transform Levels 5 & 6 of Vyse Street MSCP into a sustainable urban farm.
It aims to champion local producers and food businesses, helping to support the wants and needs of the local economy and people with a fresher, tastier and more sustainable alternative to the major supermarkets.
Spread over two phases the project will include glasshouses for vertical growing, a non-odour emitting mushroom farm, plant beds, bee-keeping facilities, a community garden, an events space, three wind turbines, and a biodiversity centre with a café.
All goods will be delivered via electric cargo bikes and electric vans/milk floats.
