We're mapping fruit trees, places where people grow veg, places where you can buy fresh fruit and veg in Leeds, plus some other things
Please help by marking any fruit and veg you know about on the Guest Layers


This map is a continuous work in progress which explores issues and ideas rather than providing reliable information. Some layers are empty or incomplete and all data is in a constant state of flux.
Always check with the relevant authorities and/or primary sources before taking any action
