Are you interested or involved in Community Gardening?
Let’s work/learn/play/garden together! Community Gardens add great value to our neighbourhoods as more and more people become interested in gardening. The wellness benefits make it a treasured space with a long list of rewards. One of the challenges before us now is inclusivity and access to garden space. How do we provide not only fresh garden produce, but the actual therapeutic gardening experience to a larger number and greater diversity of people considering the small number of actual plots available? Come to this session and discover how you can help grow a community garden that invites more engagement, cultivates deeper connections, and meets more of the needs of the wider community. Explore how we can shift from a traditional allotment-based community garden into an inclusive therapeutic garden, accessible and inviting to the entire community, rather than just a handful of garden members. G.I.F.F.T. Gardens may be the solution – let’s find out together! Together, we grow. Live participation is highly encouraged but a recording of the presentation will be sent out to those who have registered, but cannot attend. Register here:
