This summer’s brutal heatwave nearly destroyed Oldham’s Northern Lily Community Garden, wiping out up to three-quarters of its harvest — a critical blow to the 12,700 meals it normally provides. Volunteers had to slash their polytunnel crops and battle scorching temps that baked the soil, threatening not just food but the garden’s core mission: fostering wellbeing and inclusion through nature. With no constant watering possible, they’re urging neighbors to water deeply, count to ten, and install rainwater butts — simple steps that could mean the difference between survival and collapse for this vital community lifeline.
