Helping maintain the community garden at Wild Green E13

After a successful first visit in April, we shall be returning to the lovingly maintained Community Garden at Wild Green E13, a grassroots community group transforming Upperton Road West Park into a thriving, sustainable urban garden 🌿, to help our friendly host Fleur.

Founded in 2019, Wild Green E13 is all about bringing people together—creating a welcoming space where the local community can connect, learn new skills, and experience nature and wildlife right in the heart of the city. Their garden isn’t just a green space—it’s a hub for positive change, biodiversity, and community spirit.

They’re a small but dedicated team, and this is where we come in.

We’ll be rolling up our sleeves to help:

• Clear an overgrown path and make the space more accessible

• Weed borders, beds, and planters to help plants thrive

• Carry out general garden maintenance to keep things looking great

Your efforts will make an immediate, visible difference—helping maintain a space that benefits people of all ages and backgrounds, supports local wildlife, and promotes sustainable urban living.

We’ll meet at 18:30 and leave shortly after with a gentle jog of about 3km to the task. We always have a backmarker and no one is left behind.

Option 2 – Meet at the task
Meet us directly at the community garden at 19:00.

Expect fresh air, good company, and the satisfaction of helping a community garden flourish 🌼
