The Architecture Foundation is pleased to announce the publication of The Union Street Urban Orchard: A Case Study of Creative Interim Use.
In the summer of 2010 the Union Street Urban Orchard sprung into bloom on what had previously been a disused site. This book is seen as a legacy of the Urban Orchard offering insight into how this community garden was created. There are essays from those who made it happen, DIY tips, recipes using the fruits of the Orchard and a foreword by journalist and presenter, Jon Snow. It is hoped that this publication will inspire others to try and grow their own and think creatively about disused spaces within the city.
