what we do….

Activities at space2grow are centred around the acre of land and the seasons and range from general gardening, specific projects (like creating a pond) to wellbeing activities. Days are split into sessions each run by a volunteer or paid individual.  This allows us to bring a variety of people onto the acre offering a diverse range of activities for young and old.

Click on the images below to find out more about the sessions and when they are held.

For further information or to book a visit to the acre please email info@space2grow.space
