Get Involved

You don't need to know anything about gardening.

Volunteer sessions run throughout the year, with regular weekend mornings you can drop into. Turn up in clothes you don't mind getting muddy and someone will hand you a job. There's always something that needs doing, whether that's sowing seed, hauling compost, weeding, havesting and repairing the things around the garden.

Everyone's welcome, whatever your age, background or how much time you've got, and you’re welcome to bring your children if you can supervise them yourself. We take looking after our volunteers seriously, especially anyone new or who might need a bit more support, and there's always someone on hand if you need them.

If you'd rather come once and see how you feel, that's completely fine.

Volunteer sessions usually happen on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am
