“Parkwood have opened up the space for us and it’s a one-of at the moment but the hope is to make it a regular thing every six weeks or so, to bring things such as arts and crafts and free events to the community.”
The event was born off the back of a successful free community event in the summer at Runnymede Gardens, which raised money for Northern Devon Foodbank.
Free the Arts UK also has some land in Ilfracombe where Jack and Tarma want to set up a farm project, working with Incredible Edible and offering an organic café, with teaching sessions and a craft school.
