Our garden is open every day and can be accessed via the lane between the swimming pool and the playground and up the stairs. Each Wednesday from 10am people come to garden together and contribute a plate to a shared lunch at 12.30pm

The garden serves several purposes

• as a community gathering place to share ideas.
• to help improve community well-being and to be in a place of beauty.
• Offers the opportunity for people learn to grow food and minimise waste.
• A place to share in the bounty of the nutritious spray free food from the garden.
