Improving green spaces and biodiversity in the city

Date and time
18:45 - 19:45We'll be helping Mary at Maria's Gardens near Finsbury Park again this week.
Maria's Garden was originally known as Parkside Growing Plot, a community garden project led by Maria. Since Maria passed away, the garden has been unused, but last autumn a few neighbours have come together to bring it back to beauty - renaming it in her honour.
They also won a silver from Islington in Bloom's "Best Hidden Gem". ✨
There is a significant amount of work needs carrying out to bring it back to it's former beauty, and Mary would love our help. She is also supporting her son to create his own sensory plot. There are planters and a bench that need assembling.
🧤 Please bring gloves.
Running there with us? We'll be running slowly there from Arsenal Community Hub, it's about 1km each way. Meet us at Arsenal for warm ups at 6.45pm. There is space to change and leave your bag if needed.
Meeting us there? Be at Maria's Gardens for 7.15pm (just beyond Sam Morris Nursery), 38 Parkside Cresent, London, N7 7JG What3Words location: ///fallen.affair.admiral
