our services

Improving Personal Wellbeing

greater WellBeing

We follow the principles of the 5 ways to wellbeing and Social and Therapeutic Horticulture. We provide free programmes, events and services for the community to improve their physical and mental wellbeing through growing and eating food and developing skills whilst being in nature.

Improving Biodiversity and the Climate

Healthy Environment

We practice organic and regenerative methods where ever we grow food, aiming to increase local biodiversity and soil health. We source any other materials and ingredients from Organic and local producers and create circular systems of waste management and production at all of our projects.

Strengthening Communities

Strong Communities

We build resilient communities at our projects by offering alternative and accessible ways to socialise, gain skills and set up community groups and businesses. We provide new sustainable employment opportunities in the green sector, reduce social isolation and support the local economy.

“An excellent community space brimming with good ideas, and bringing together people who might not otherwise meet.”
