The Greenhouse Project is part of the Nature & Wellbeing service run across the county by the Lancashire Wildlife Trust. The project uses activities in nature to promote positive physical & mental health as well as strong communities living in harmony with the natural world. The project took over the previously abandoned Greenhouses in Witton Park in 2021 and has been engaging volunteers in transforming them as a community asset to empower people to grow food and wildlife friendly plants.

Photographed between 2023 and 2025 the project aims to document the strong sense of community present in the Greenhouse through portraits and photographs of space, exploring the change in season, engagement with the space and human interaction.
The work was later returned to the space and shown as part of a temporary exhibition and Zine launch as part of a Summer Solstice celebration event.
All festival exhibitions are FREE to visit.
