Manchester Urban Diggers CIC (MUD) is a social enterprise, working to create food system change and empower communities. We create grassroots, people-led farming projects, growing sustainable and healthy food for Manchester communities.
For our dedicated work in supporting communities, groups and organisations across Manchester, we have have received multiple awards and recognitions:
Most recently, we won Project of the Year 2023 at the Manchester Food & Drink awards.
We have been identified by GMCVO as an example of ‘Best Practice for an Inclusive Economy’.
We were supported by MP Afzal Kahn in the House of Commons, highlighting our examples of repurposing green spaces, and we were also used as a case study for the government's Levelling Up Scheme.
In 2022, we won the RHS Britain In Bloom’s discretionary ‘Pride of Manchester’ award and the ‘Dena Murphy’ award in 2023 in recognition of PFMG and our community work in Manchester.
We are involved in 3 of the largest Green Spaces Award projects - BUG in Beswick, Forever Fields in Whalley Range & Collyhurst.
