What we do
Gardening sessions bring people together through nurturing the garden and learning about nature
During sessions we tend the garden and learn about how to sow seeds, propagate plants, including taking cuttings, potting up seedlings, pruning fruit bushes and fruit trees.
We also harvest and share our fruits and vegetables, cook with what we grow, and run craft activities.
All tools are provided and all sessions are free.
The garden is accessible for wheelchairs and there are accessible toilets in the parish hall.
