The Benefits of Community Gardening
Provides fresh, affordable produce
Our community gardens provide access to fresh, affordable produce, helping to improve food security and promote healthy eating habits.
Builds a sense of community
Community gardens bring people together, fostering a sense of community and belonging. By working together towards a common goal, we can create a more connected and supportive community.
Gets people active & improves physical health
Gardening is a fun and rewarding way to stay active and improve physical health. By spending time outdoors and engaging in physical activity, we can improve our overall well-being.

We regularly run fun and interactive sessions, share knowledge and experience with you so you can gain new skills in the garden.
