Looking at the type of project, its objectives and amount you’re trying to raise, I would strongly suggest also looking into the National Lottery’s Awards For All programme. At face value it looks like something that would hit a lot buttons with the Lottery.
They fund community based projects with up to £10K grant available per project. Any amount you raise by crowdfunding could be used as part “match” funding and would show a healthy contribution from the applicant, if you wanted to apply.
There’s no guarantees of getting a grant but chances used to be around 50% of applications approved.
Great project!! There’s nothing more important than teaching our kids to grow their own food and just letting them see the seed to plate journey. Donated.
We are doing something similar at my local village hall here on Anglesey.
We are setting up a garden that the kids were involved in designing , and the local school will involve in their curriculum.
We did get a grant from a welsh charity to get it up and running , but we also got quite a bit of free equipment from Keep Wales Tidy…
Another option - is the site within the boundary of the “One Palfrey Big Local” initiative? Another Lottery funded programme (loads of small communities across the country got around £1M spread over 10 years to help community-led regeneration).
Not sure if their 10 years is now finished but worth checking out:
