Set up in 2015 with the aim of creating a beautiful and abundant garden that could provide us with livelihoods whilst being a vital community resource and wildlife heaven. We wanted this space to inspire creativity and connect people to the land and where their food comes from, experimenting with growing techniques that help life above and below the ground.
Our backgrounds are in community food growing through allotments, community gardens and orchards and in conventional floristry and visual arts. We all wanted to create alternatives to the current food and flower industries and create a space where our community can come and experience where their produce comes from and have more of an understanding how fragile and unpredictable it can be to grow as well as how vibrant, delicious, diverse and the amount of wildlife it can support.
By enriching and regenerating soil fertility we work in partnership with nature using wildlife-friendly growing methods to increase biodiversity and resilient long term productivity.
By disturbing the soil as little as possible, we leave the wee beasties, microorganisms and mycelium to continue their soil nutrient cycle, which has supported us humans for thousands of years.
