FROM THE GROUND UP
Bringing Sustainability Into Your Life
Who we are
From The Ground Up is an Unincorporated Association; run by a group of dedicated volunteers, committed to creating a forum to inform local residents. We believe that community-led events are the grass root movements that will make the essential changes required to support a sustainable way of life - how these changes happen in, and, for the benefit of the community and globally.
2024 Festival Highlights
We are incredibly proud to have hosted our third annual sustainability festival at St. Philip and St. James Church in Leckhampton. This year's theme, 'Take a Breath of Fresh Air,' reflects our commitment to environmental well-being. Our dedicated committee and volunteers have invested tremendous effort, resulting in over 30 participants showcasing inspiring and informative stands, talks, and workshops. The collaborative spirit of our community shines through, making each festival a vibrant celebration of sustainable living.
