FAQs / T & Cs

I’m not in Nottingham can I take part?

Yea! Nottz Garden Project has friends all over the country, we’d love as many photos from Nottingham folks but this in an outward looking assignment open to all!

Can I enter multiple photos?

Yea! You can enter various categories and take photos of ‘Growing for Good’ at different stages of the 2024 growing season

Are photos from a smartphone OK?

Nottz Garden Project is founded in uplifting our communityso we want it to be as inclusive and accessible as possible – everyone’s got a camera on their phone right? So Smartphone photos are 100% in!

BUT – if you are lucky enough to have camera equipment etc we’d love you to take part too!

My photo idea is not mentioned in your categories?

  Freestyle! If it fits into our ‘Growing For Good’ theme its fine – pretty sure there are categories and ideas that we haven't thought about!

Is there a prize?
