Care for people & the earth.
Two and a half acres of beautiful organic garden containing ponds, meadows, woodland, sculptures fruit and vegetables.
Our education and youth programmes for young people cover a huge variety of themes and activities including pond dipping, environmental arts, forest schools, Duke of Edinburgh and more...
As well as our everyday activities, staff and volunteers frequently become involved in projects.
We are always looking for support from our local community and beyond. Please come along and visit the garden.
We believe that it is far better to work with nature to create beautiful and productive places, rather than wage war on pests and weeds.
