Volunteers needed to join SWF Community Garden

Would you like to get involved in a brand new community garden?

Meadowcroft Garden Centre have donated a beautiful piece of land for local people to grow flowers, harvest vegetables, learn new skills, and enjoy being with friendly people in a lovely location.

The sessions are supported by an expert from the RHS.

We need volunteers who can help get the garden started and then carry it forward for the community. A bit of gardening knowledge would be lovely but not essential, and we'll always strive to provide activities for all levels of access and know-how.

TUESDAYS 10AM – 12.00 at MEADOWCROFT GARDEN CENTRE.



Skills

You must be friendly, welcoming, and happy to get along with people of all backgrounds and abilities.

A bit of gardening knowledge is useful but not required - you can learn alongside us!

The garden is accessible, and people with different abilities are most welcome. We will do craft and table activities for anyone who can't physically garden.
